HOA & Condo Mailing Expertise for Chicagoland

Chicago has one of the largest condominium markets in the United States, with tens of thousands of condo associations across the city and suburbs. Illinois regulates these communities through two major statutes: the Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605) for condominiums and the Common Interest Community Association Act (765 ILCS 160) for HOAs and other common-interest communities. The Condominium Property Act requires specific notice procedures — board meeting notices must be posted in conspicuous places at least 48 hours in advance, notice of any membership meeting runs 10 to 30 days, and each owner gets the proposed annual budget at least 25 days before the board adopts it. Our mailing services are built to handle both statutes' requirements across Chicagoland.

Chicago's condo market is especially concentrated downtown and in the North Side — from high-rises along Lake Shore Drive to mid-rise conversions in Lincoln Park, Lakeview, and the West Loop. Suburban HOA communities in DuPage County (Naperville, Wheaton), Cook County (Schaumburg, Arlington Heights), and Will County (Plainfield, Bolingbrook) add significant volume. We handle everything from 20-unit condo building mailings to 5,000+ home suburban community distributions, with carrier route pre-sorting that exploits Chicagoland's dense postal geography for maximum postage savings.

FAQ

HOA Mailing FAQ — Chicago, IL

What does the Illinois Condominium Property Act require for mailing notices?
The Illinois Condominium Property Act (765 ILCS 605) requires notice of every board meeting to be posted in entranceways, elevators, or other conspicuous places at least 48 hours ahead, with the same 48 hours to each board member and electronic notice to owners who have authorized it (§ 18(a)(9)). Notice of any membership meeting, not only the annual one, runs 10 to 30 days before the meeting (§ 18(b)(6)). Each owner must receive the proposed annual budget at least 25 days before the board adopts it (§ 18(a)(6)); the 30-day version of that rule belongs to master associations (§ 18.5(c)). Special assessment notices have their own timeline. Your association's governing documents may impose longer windows, so confirm every date with your association's counsel. We maintain compliance calendars for all Chicagoland condo clients to ensure every statutory deadline is met.
How does the Common Interest Community Association Act differ from the Condo Act?
The CICAA (765 ILCS 160) governs non-condo communities — traditional HOAs, townhome associations, and planned developments. While similar to the Condominium Property Act in many respects, the CICAA has its own notice timelines and disclosure requirements. Board meeting notice requirements, budget approval procedures, and assessment collection rules differ between the two statutes. We track which statute applies to each Chicagoland community and apply the correct requirements.
Do you serve downtown Chicago high-rise condo associations?
Yes. We handle mailings for numerous high-rise condo associations along Lake Shore Drive, in the Loop, Streeterville, River North, and the South Loop. Our addressing system manages complex unit numbering for buildings with hundreds of units, and we coordinate with doorman and concierge-managed buildings that have specific mail delivery protocols. Downtown condo associations appreciate our 48-hour board meeting notice turnaround capability.
What suburban areas of Chicagoland do you cover?
We serve the entire Chicagoland metro across Cook, DuPage, Lake, Will, Kane, and McHenry counties. This includes Naperville, Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, Bolingbrook, Plainfield, Wheaton, Evanston, Oak Park, and the rapidly growing communities along the I-88 and I-355 corridors. Our USPS routing covers all Chicagoland ZIP codes on a 72-hour print-and-mail turnaround, with delivery on USPS transit times.
