Can I invest legal problems
Hello! I made a mistake a couple years ago and am now a registered sex offender. Could I still own rental properties in Illinois? Thanks!
hmmmmm well the only thing I can find really find on this is Illinois general assembly C-6 which states, "It is unlawful for a sex offender who owns and resides at residential real estate to knowingly rent any residential unit within the same building in which he or she resides to a person who is the parent or guardian of a child or children under 18 years of age" So I think you might have trouble house hacking or owning a building and living in one of the units.
I STRONGLY advise you to talk to a lawyer or sheriff or maybe someone down at town hall because some cities and towns have strict requirements that go even further than the state law. Good luck!
@Hans Suljic dang. I’ll have to try doing research on it. I have a house we just got for fairly cheap so wouldn’t house hack at the moment, but thanks for the advice!!
