I dunno. I think leases of real property are almost always governed by the laws of the state where the property is located, not whatever other state the parties happen to reside in.

That is a question of choice of law, not federal jurisdiction. Illinois law will usually apply to Illinois properties, but that doesn't mean a New York federal court can't apply Illinois law.
