Installment Sales Contract Act Protecting Rent-To-Own Homebuyers
Public Act 100-0416: Installment Sales Contract Act Protecting Rent-to-Own Homebuyers New Illinois Law Goes into Effect on January 1, 2018 In the aftermath of the foreclosure crisis, there has been a resurgence in “rent-to-own” housing opportunities (a.k.a. contracts for deed or real estate installment contracts) promising homeownership to people who generally are not in a financial position to buy a home through securing a mortgage. While rent-to-own can be an understandable choice for certain buyers, prior to passage of this new state law, rent-to-own contracts were only minimally regulated under Illinois law and prone to contain misleading and/or unfair terms and conditions. Even worse, some sellers of rent-to-own homes have a business model based on predatory practices that churn a series of buyers through unsustainable agreements that quickly lead to default. Key consumer protection provisions in Public Act 100-0416 include: Disclosures and Education Prior to the Sale • Creates Installment Sales Contract Act regulating sellers of 1-4 unit residential properties who enter into contracts more than 3 times in any 12-month period. • Requires a written contract for these sales that must include certain information, including any balloon payments due. • Requires the buyer to receive an amortization schedule prior to closing, so they understand how much of their monthly payment will be applied to principal and interest and how long it will take to pay off the loan. • Requires disclosure of building code violations and fair cash value, as reflected on tax bills, so that prospective buyers have some sense of the condition and value of the home.

2017 IHCA Regular Legislative Session Report
2017 IHCA Regular Legislative Session Report 2017 Legislative Session Overview FY17 and FY18 Budget Overview Substantive Legislative Initiatives June 2, 2017 2017 Legislative Session Overview The 2017 regular spring session came to a close with a whimper late Wednesday night. The first year of the 100th General Assembly began with the legislature and Rauner administration returning to Springfield following an acrimonious and bitter 2016 election cycle. The Democrats attempted to make the elections a referendum on the efforts of the Governor and legislative Republicans to tie non-budgetary items such as workers compensation reform, pension relief and property tax relief to the state’s budget. For their part the Republicans did the same, with messaging centered on the use of increasing income tax and protection of union interests against the Democrats. The Democrats seemingly won the day in the 2016 March primary election, defending Republican Senator Sam McCann against a Governor Rauner funded opponent who was slated as punishment for McCann’s stance against Rauner on an AFSCE friendly bill, and defeating incumbent House Democrat Ken Dunkin for his staunch support of the Republican Governor. As well, they handily defeated a Rauner funded primary opponent of Speaker Madigan (placing a primary opponent against a sitting legislative leader is all but verboten in Springfield, making this move something of a shock to the Springfield political establishment). These victories, however, weren’t quite the sign of things to come that some expected in the November general election. In the race for Illinois’ junior Senate seat, Democrat Tammy Duckworth easily surpassed incumbent Republican Senator Mark Kirk.

COOK COUNTY CLERK DAVID ORR 69 W. Washington, Suite 500, Chicago, Illinois 60602 TEL (312) 603-0996 FAX (312) 603-9788 WEB cookcountyclerk.com Dear Friends: The March 15, 2016 Presidential Primary shattered modern-day records going back more than 25 years. The popularity of initiatives such as Online Voter Registration and Election Day Registration, as well as registration and voting for 17-year-olds, proved there is a great desire by voters to take part in the electoral process. This was the first presidential election to include Election Day Registration and voting by 17-year- olds who will be 18-years-old by the General Election – offerings we found to be very popular with suburban Cook County voters. This 2016 Presidential Primary Post-Election Report takes a comprehensive look at the voting totals, trends and statistics during the March primary throughout suburban Cook County. Below is a sample size of the standout primary numbers: • Voting before Election Day – by mail, or during early voting and grace period voting – accounted for 22 percent of all ballots cast in this election. • Early Voting set a new primary record with 113,641 ballots cast in a Presidential Primary. • More than 23,000 suburban Cook County voters took advantage of Election Day Registration. • Nearly 4,400 17-year-olds voted, accounting for 62 percent of the 7,085 who registered to vote. • Donald Trump won 25 of the 30 Suburban Cook County Townships, garnering his best total in Stickney Township, with 62.1 percent of the vote. • Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were separated by just nine votes in Norwood Park Township (Clinton: 1,859; Sanders: 1,850).
