Townships of North Chicago, Lake, Jefferson, West Chicago, Rogers Park, and South Chicago were just re-assessed by the County Assessor in 2021. Homeowners and businesses in these townships saw a 50% to 250% increase in their property assessments.
This is the last opportunity for homeowners to appeal their property taxes for the 2021 Assessment Year. Once the Board of Review stops accepting appeals in your township, this opportunity is gone.
There is also still time to apply for missing property tax exemptions. A lot of homeowners lost their property tax exemptions this year for no apparent reason and saw their tax bills jump quite a bit in comparison to the last year. We can help homeowners re-apply for these exemptions and get a refund. Unlike collar counties, residents of Cook County can apply for a refund to claim their property tax exemptions for the last 3 years.
We would like to offer all your clients a 25% discount on all our services and appeal fees!
