Purpose of Rental Registration
The Village of Orland Park adopted the rental code to provide minimum standards for residential rental housing for the protection of the life, health, welfare, and property of residential rental owners and tenants, as well as that of the general public. This applies to all residential rental properties including single family homes and multi-unit buildings such as townhomes, condominiums, and apartment complexes.
Annual Fees
- Single Family Detached Residence - $100.00 per unit
- Single Family Attached Residence (including townhomes) - $100.00 per unit
- Multi-Family Residence - $100.00 plus $15.00 per additional unit within the same building
Residential Rental Property Inspection
Once the application is received and payment made, a letter with a date and time for inspection will be sent to the property owner’s mailing address. If the property is a single family home, townhome or condo, you may arrange for the Property Maintenance Inspector to meet with the tenant in order to complete the required inspection. For multi-unit buildings, the owner or agent must accompany the inspector. Any violations are required to be corrected within the given timeframe as determined by the Inspector. Failure to correct the violations can result in a citation and additional fees. Once approved, a rental housing sticker will be issued for the property. Inspections are on a tri-annual basis.

All tenants of the rental unit, age 18 years of age or older, must sign the Crime Free Lease Addendum. This must be available at the request of the Village of Orland Park, as well as the signed lease.
