cook county: Tsk - The Season! - 11/25/10 05:05 PM
Being in Property Management BY ITSELF is a huge chunk to deal with especially at this time of the year. No matter how well the tenants have been screened, it seems to NEVER FAIL that managers report a lag in payments in this season at a rate of 10 to 20% of late or NO collections! From the rents expected to recover, some may not be seen until income tax refunds come in from rapid filing! Tsk The Season!
Typical Rent Delaying Excuses Heard:
Uh, you UNDERSTAND, It's CHRISTMAS!! - Interpretation: Y'all DON'T deserve to have one! Calling to say, we will be late, but we WILL pay the late fee! - Interpretation: We overspent! Something came up, but … (39 comments)

cook county: First Time Home Buyer's $8,000 Credit - Extended Until AFTER Income Tax Day! - 11/07/09 11:42 AM
If your search to purchase a home for the first time had you in a flabbergasted state to hastily make a choice from what's available on the market... guess what? GOOD NEWS!! The deadline date for qualifying for the tax credit awarded to home buyers has been prolonged!
Agents and buyers can both cease from holding their breath... a bit, for Congress has extended AND expanded the tax credit for qualifying buyers. The official last day for filing (income) taxes with the IRS is April 15Th, 2010. The official last day to have a written binding purchase contract for a home is April 30Th, 2010. As … (19 comments)

cook county: WHY Does Your Picture Have Those Marks On It? - 09/20/09 01:41 AM
My driver's license expired in March. I was required to renew in person to undergo vision screening, and get an updated photograph.
My mind was pre-programmed to expect a criminal-looking photograph that would be my official identification for the next four to eight years! -------------------------->
Those who are acquainted with me, are accustomed to my routine of walking into a crowd, charging the atmosphere, revving up the audience until laughter flows, and no difference was made with my visit to the Secretary of State facility in Illinois.
After handing over my old license, paying the renewal fee, and successfully passing the administered eye examination, time finally came to have my picture taken!
When my name … (10 comments)

cook county: Squatter Moves In Rental House Without Security Deposit!! - 03/09/09 06:19 PM
We had not been notified in advance, and had not received a security deposit, rental payment, tenant application, or a current credit report!
So.... when the alarmed tenant called with a report of a squatter who took up residency in the lower quarters of their rental house we knew exactly what to do and this would NOT be tolerated! It was not necessary to revert to the rental policy manual! This uninvited intruder, sneakily moved in sometime during the night! This was a PEST!
I quickly did a Google search and came up with:
Safe Squatter Control - A site that has a gadget called a "Squatter Guard"* Squatter-Repellent.com - They have a product called "Shake … (19 comments)

Today, the TIME changed in the major continents of the world to observe the daylight savings time tradition. We adjusted our clocks here in Illinois, right along with others and lost one whole hour of time! Can it be recaptured? NO! In the fall we gain an hour when the time falls back, however, the things we needed to do in March cannot wait until October!
The good news is that you do not have to lose again... And you do not have to wait any longer! Now is an excellent time to trade in your rental for ownership! You may have waited a lengthy endurance for this day to arrive and may be … (8 comments)

Lieutenant Chris Van Dyke of the Riverdale Fire Department attended the first Riverdale Landlord meeting of 2008 January 17th, and gave property owners startling facts! At age 65, older adults are twice as likely to be killed or injured by fires or falls compared to the population at large and their population is increasing rapidly!

cook county: New Eviction Procedures for Illinois - 08/07/07 07:52 PM
We received this fax a few days ago from our Attorney whom we use for evictions:
After a week or two of rampant rumors, the Sheriff of Cook County, Thomas Dart, has published new rules concerning enforcement of entered Orders for Possession, On July 30. 2007 the Sheriff announced by publication that commencing August 6, 2007, the Sheriff 's office will no longer provide moving crews.
While the procedure is somewhat confused and convoluted In the Sheriffs documentation, it appears that the new procedure will parallel that which has been in effect for commercial evictions in Cook County and both commercial … (8 comments)
