Illinois No-Smoking Addendum

This No-Smoking Addendum is built with Illinois as the governing state. These are the Illinois landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Illinois rules at a glance

Illinois rules for a No-Smoking Addendum
Nonpayment eviction5-day written demand for the rent due735 ILCS 5/9-209
NonpaymentA 5-day written demand stating the amount due; the lease terminates if the rent is not paid in full within five days of service (735 ILCS 5/9-209). Late fees are not “rent” and may not be bundled into the demand amount.
Landlord entryNo statutory minimum — the lease controls (Chicago requires 48 hours)

Landlord entry & access

Illinois has no statute setting a minimum notice period for landlord entry. Neither the Landlord and Tenant Act nor any other state act specifies hours or days, so courts apply a general standard of reasonable notice, at a reasonable time, for a reasonable purpose. Twenty-four hours is commonly treated as reasonable in practice, but it is not codified — any hour figure in an Illinois lease is a contract term, not a statutory rule.

Chicago is the exception: the RLTO requires at least 48 hours’ notice for non-emergency entry. Self-help is never permitted anywhere in Illinois — forcible entry and detainer is the exclusive route to possession, and only the sheriff may remove a tenant under a court order.

Ending an Illinois tenancy

Notice periods turn on the type of tenancy: 30 days for month-to-month, 7 days for week-to-week (735 ILCS 5/9-207), and 60 days for year-to-year, given within the four months preceding the final 60 days of the year (735 ILCS 5/9-205). A fixed-term lease simply expires on its end date unless the lease says otherwise.

  • Nonpayment — A 5-day written demand stating the amount due; the lease terminates if the rent is not paid in full within five days of service (735 ILCS 5/9-209). Late fees are not “rent” and may not be bundled into the demand amount.
  • Other breaches — A 10-day written notice for breaches such as unauthorized occupants or pets, damage, or nuisance (735 ILCS 5/9-210).
  • Jury trial cannot be waived — Either party may demand a jury in a residential possession case notwithstanding any lease waiver (735 ILCS 5/9-108).
  • Safety-related early exit — A tenant facing a credible threat of domestic or sexual violence may terminate under the Safe Homes Act (765 ILCS 750), and a deployed service member may terminate under 765 ILCS 705/16.
