North Chicago — Title 12 Ch. 2 Condominium Conversion § 12-2-8
POSTING OF CERTIFICATES:
Operative Text
It shall become the obligation of the applicant to post and keep posted one copy of the certificate of inspection on the front doorway of each unit to which it pertains until the sale of that unit is consummated and to post and keep posted a copy of the certificate pertaining to the common elements on the doorway of the main entrance and any such other places as may be directed by the Building Commissioner until the sale of the last unit has been consummated.
Under North Chicago Title 12, Ch. 2, § 12-2-8, anyone applying for a condominium conversion is required to display a copy of the inspection certificate on the front door of each individual unit until that unit is sold, and to display the certificate covering common areas at the main building entrance—and any other locations the Building Commissioner specifies—until every unit in the building has been sold. The posting obligation is continuous throughout the sales process, not a one-time requirement. This rule ensures that prospective buyers and residents have visible access to inspection information during the entire conversion and sale period.
Plain English — not legal advice.
As a condominium conversion applicant subject to North Chicago Title 12, Ch. 2, § 12-2-8, compliant operators maintain a posted copy of each unit's inspection certificate on that unit's front doorway from the start of the conversion process through the closing of that unit's sale. They also keep the common-elements certificate posted at the main building entrance—and any additional locations the Building Commissioner may direct—until the final unit in the building is sold. Operators typically establish a routine check to confirm that posted certificates remain in place and legible throughout the entire sales period.

Under North Chicago Title 12, Ch. 2, § 12-2-8, tenants and prospective buyers in a condominium conversion building have the right to see inspection certificates posted directly on the front door of each unit and at the main building entrance for common areas. If certificates are missing or have been removed before the relevant sale is completed, that may constitute a violation of this provision. Individuals who believe this posting requirement is not being met can contact the North Chicago Building Commissioner's office to report the concern, or consult a tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
