Bedrooms and Closets
I am in the process of purchasing my very first multifamily unit investment property. The property listing stated that it was 3-units with 3-bedrooms in each unit. The home inspection was completed, and the appraisal was completed. The appraisal reports lists the property as 3 units all with 3 bedrooms. Yesterday I went to visit the property and noticed that the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms did not have a closet. I've looked at the Chicago code to attempt to understand if it can still be considered a bedroom. There are doors on both of the rooms as well as the room having the required sized windows. Because there is not a closet, is it still considered a LEGAL bedroom? If it is considered a bedroom, even without a closet, where in the code does it state that fact? Or does it just need to have a closet within a certain distance even if the closet is not directly in the room?
