In Illinois, the 5-day notice is a non-payment of rent notice. The landlord must give the tenant the five-day notice, which gives the tenant notice of the amount of rent due within 5-days. The 5-day notice gives the tenant 5 calendar days (not business days) to pay the full-amount of rent or face the prospect of eviction proceedings in Kendall County. Generally, the 5-day notice must state the rental amount owed and due and that partial-payment is unacceptable. Landlords should be careful about accepting partial payments after the 5-day period because it will invalidate the 5-day notice.

On the one hand, commercial property owners could be willing to wait out a slow period for a delinquent business renter since they are aware that maintaining an existing tenant is often easier than finding a new one.

On the other hand, the delayed payments may have lowered the investor's earnings to the point that they are now at risk of experiencing their own financial problems. For this reason, it is essential for investors to understand the eviction process for a business tenant who is overdue on their rent and to carefully consider their options before moving forward with the action.

This article discusses the Illinois Forcible Entry and Detainer Process for commercial evictions in Bolingbrook and Will County Circuit Court. Commercial evictions are generally done due to non-payment of rent or a material breach of contract. The commercial eviction process in Will County and Bolingbrook consists of three steps.

Will County Eviction Notices

The two major eviction notices are the five-day notice; the 30-day notice; and the 10-day notice for commercial evictions. The five-day notice is a notice where the tenant is alleged to failed to pay the full amount of their rent. The five (5) day notice gives the tenant five full days to pay their rent. If the commercial tenants fail to pay their rent after the five (5) day period, then landlord may file a lawsuit at the Will County Courthouse in downtown Joliet, Illinois. The 30-day notice is a type of eviction notice, which terminates the month-to-month rental lease. Often, a commercial tenant has a lease with an expiration date and neither party terminates the lease. In many instances, commercial landlords have attempted to verbally, through text message, and/or email a termination letter. These methods of informing the commercial tenant that the month-to-month rental tenancy is being terminated are ineffective. The ten-day notice is a notice that alleges that the commercial tenant has breached the terms of the written lease. The ten-day notice is a non-compliance with the material terms of the written contract eviction notice.

The eviction process is described under the State of Illinois law, but there are specific differences in how each county proceeds with the eviction process. The process in Grundy County may also be known as the "law magistrate process".

The first Step in the Eviction Process begins with the Eviction Notice

The first step in beginning an eviction against a tenant begins with the eviction notice. There are four major notices for eviction in Morris, Illinois. The first type of eviction notice is the 5-day notice. The 5-day notice is the most common eviction notice because it addresses non-payment of rent. Essentially, the 5-day notice is delivered to the tenants with the full amount of the rent-seeking and the tenant has 5 days to pay the full amount of rent. If the tenant fails to pay the entire amount of rent, the landlord has the option of filing an eviction case. Accepting a partial payment of rent will invalidate the 5-day notice. The landlord may accept partial payments during the five-day period and apply the partial payment toward the unpaid balance. The key issue is the landlord must not accept a partial payment of rent beyond the 5-day grace period offered by the 5-day notice.
