    NO

    It's truly amazing what the tenants can claim and do to a
    property and the owner, I said this once and I say it again,
    the Landlord who is consider a rich mean man, hands their
    property valued 100K of thousands of dollars to total
    strangers for a few hundred dollars a month, not knowing that
    the tenants most of the time, do the damages themselves to the
    rental property to get away with NOT paying rent, or calling
    their own handyman licensed or not and deducting from the
    rent, blaming all to the Landlord

    Next thing these people are going to claim is that they have
    roaches, mice, electric wires hunging down and the roof leaks
    correct?

    I love it when the Judges say to the Plaintiff that is bring
    charges against their landlord, did you rent the property with
    roaches, mice and the dangerous electric wires?

    Of course not, that should be the answer from the dishonest
    tenants.

    Yikes a dog in a rental property, will destroy the property,
    carpet, stink the property...YIKES! poor landlord !


    *Other problems with the landlord include:
    Plumbing problems were not dealt with in a timely fashion
    and #1 brought equipment and supplies to try to repair
    problem himself. When the plumber finally was called in,
    it was apparent the problem had occurred before. The
    property is not maintained in a suitable fashion for
    Midwestern winters. The windows have visible gaps that
    allow valuable heat to escape and there is a breeze so
    strong, that a candle cannot not stay lit. This house is
    heated with expensive propane. The landlord said they
    would “work something out” with regard to the expensive
    heating costs, but have not done so. #1 provided supplies
    and labor to put plastic over all windows to seal them as
    best he could. Do you think #1 can claim constructive
    eviction in Illinois? *

    THE ABOVE IS TRULY SHOCKING!

    Can # 1 tenant claim Constructive Eviction in Illinois* NO not
    whithout a legal paper from the COURT, after Summons and
    Complaint!
