Schaumburg requires rental properties to comply with property maintenance standards enforced through building inspections. Multi-family buildings are subject to periodic inspection programs.
The Village of Schaumburg enforces rental property standards through its property maintenance code and building inspection programs. Multi-family residential buildings are subject to periodic inspections by the Community Development Department to ensure compliance with building, fire, and housing codes. While Schaumburg does not operate a standalone rental registration program, landlords of multi-family properties must maintain current contact information with the Village. Single-family rental properties are subject to the same property maintenance standards as owner-occupied homes. Code Enforcement responds to tenant complaints about habitability issues including structural defects, plumbing, electrical, heating, and pest infestations. Landlords are responsible for ensuring rental units meet all applicable codes.
Code violations result in notices to the property owner with correction deadlines. Fines range from $50 to $750 per violation per day for non-compliance.
