Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Code of Civil Procedure. Provides that, if the lessor (or agent of the lessor) of residential real property, containing 100 or more residential units in either a single building or a complex of buildings, maintains a business office on the premises of the building or complex that has regularly scheduled office hours, the lessor (or agent of the lessor) must accept rent payments from a lessee of any of those residential units at that business office during the office's regularly scheduled office hours, and the lessor may not impose any penalty, fee, or charge for making timely rent payments in this manner. Applies to leases and rental agreements in effect on the effective date unless the lease or rental agreement contains specific language that is in conflict. Provides that any provision of a lease or other rental agreement entered into, extended, or renewed on or after the effective date of the amendatory Act that conflicts with the new provisions is void and unenforceable. Amends the Landlord and Tenant Act to create a cross-reference to the new provisions in the Code of Civil Procedure. Effective immediately.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that the landlord may not impose any penalty, fee, or charge for making rent payments at an on-premises business office that are otherwise considered timely under the lease (instead of timely rent payments), but that the landlord may refuse to accept cash payments when rent is paid in this manner.
