The Security Deposit Interest Rate for 2011 is .073% (again).
Chicago RLTO Section 5-12-080(c) mandates that Chicago Landlords pay security deposit interest annually; not in a lump sum at the end of one's tenancy. If a Chicago Landlord fails to pay interest annually (or at all) a Chicago tenant shall be awarded damages equal to two (2) times the full security deposit (including refundable key, pet, and parking security deposits) plus all interest (no matter how small) plus all court costs and reasonable attorneys fees. As ridiculous as this may seem, the Illinois Supreme Court 's decision in Lawrence v. Regent Realty Group (2003) confirms that a Landlord need not acted "willfully" to be found liable to the tenant for two (2) the security deposit for failing to pay interest.
