CAA's goal is to continue to educate landlords and tenants about their rights and responsibilities before a crisis occurs. At a time when at least 38 percent of Chicagoans remain “rent burdened,” meaning more than 30 percent of their income is used for housing, it is more important than ever that we remain committed to fulfilling the Chicago Rents Right motto: "Good Tenants, Good Landlords, Great Neighborhoods!"

The City of Chicago Landlord Information Line is an excellent place to find information on everything from evictions to maintenance and repairs. Visit this section of the website for detailed information, and you can contact the hotline at 312-922-3067.
