Had a never ending cockroach problem in my apartment. After over a dozen treatments the problem was not solved. Finally got fed up and decided to give them a 14 day letter to either fix the problem or I'd terminate the lease. The 14 days came and went, I found another cockroach in the apartment, I showed this to management but the lady just conjectured that I could have taken this before the 14 days, because iPhone's don't capture all that metadata that tell you when and where a photo was taken. They didn't want to accept me legally exiting the lease, and came after me illegally with a debt collector after I moved out trying to recover rent they weren't owed. On two occasions they declined to allow my emotional support dog to accompany me into management office, despite ADA regulations. They also entered into my apartment with no notice. They ended up having to pay a fine because of that, and ended up retaliating by not accepting the termination of my lease because of the unsolved cockroach issue. Retaliating against a tenant just because they were called out on something illegal (coming into the apt with zero notice) is itself illegal in chicago according to Municipal Code Title 5, Chapter 12 5-12-150. Avoid these people at all costs!
