Landlord Tenant
Do I need to provide a written statement for security deposit deductions?
My tenant surrendered the rental premises this month. I am supposed to refund his security deposit in a few days. I will be making few deductions from the security deposit with the consent of my tenant. Do I have to provide my tenant a written statement specifying the reasons for making such deductions? I am a resident of Colorado.

What is the landlord's repair cost obligation under Illinois law?
Per the rental agreement, every year I (landlord) am required to do repair work (if needed) in the rental property. However, the agreement does not specify the amount that I am obligated to spend on the repair work. Is there a law that provides for a limit or amount that the landlord is required to spend on such repairs in the rental premises?
Can I ask my landlord to change the locks before I move in?
I will shift to a rented house next month. At present, the said rental property is in the possession of another tenant. As I will be living alone, I want the rental property to be secure and for this reason, I want the landlord to change the locks once the existing tenant vacates the premises. Is there a rule in Illinois based on which I can ask the landlord to change locks of the rental premises before giving the rental premises to me?
Can I get a refund for municipal payments made as a tenant?
