State Specific Question About: ILLINOIS (IL)

How does a landlord write an Adverse Action Notice.

Three perspective tenants sent in credit applications with a fee for the Credit Bureau. According to Trans Union, the first of the three had submitted an incomplete credit application. This was after Trans Union requested more information from the first candidate. Another candidate a credit score below my 650 requirement. The third candidate is stellar.

I had to decline them as an entity.

I notified Trans Union that I will not be accepting the group as candidates. Trans Union stated I may have to send them an Adverse Action Notice.

What has to be in the Adverse Action Notice before I send it?

Respectfully;

Henry --75.28.xxx.xxx

The company that ran the credit reports for you should provide you a letter to send each rejection. It's not a bad thing as the person can obtain a free credit report from them. You should not provide the credit report just the letter. --172.59.xxx.xxx

Don’t you mean that you turned them down for another non-credit related item? --172.58.xxx.xx

Letter of denial, if they would not pass why bother continuing dialog with them? You should have this in your property folder for each address, add name and date as needed, I am getting only denials this time of year, no moving funds but a new job next week, I would rather take a walk and enjoy the autumn colors. --184.59.xxx.xx

I run credit through the Mr. Landlord site. When I deny there is a button for me to push which generates the adverse action letter I can mail. --73.100.xxx.xx

I don't know how well this will cut and paste into this forum but here is the letter I use. It came from a mish mash of the Mr LL credit check site and my current credit check site and my application criteria. Obviously you'd have to put the correct info into your letter from whichever service you used to check their credit.

As far as some who never deny based on credit? Why. It is a valid reason. All I do is print and mail a letter when their credit is below par. It's not hard or scary. It's just a part of the business.

Where it says Application criteria I'd send a similar letter without the credit info for any of the other 6 disqualify categories.
