(765 ILCS 730/1) (from Ch. 80, par. 41)
Sec. 1.
That the purpose of this Act is to regulate the prevalent practice
of making or using written leases of real estate, which, because of
concessions to the lessees, do not truly state the real net rent being
paid, it being recognized that such practice can be, and frequently is,
used to mislead prospective purchasers and lessees, and lenders of money on
the security of such real estate, into a belief that the rental value or
market value thereof is greater than it really is.
