Property taxes play a crucial role in financing public services, such as schools, public safety, and local government operations. In Illinois, your property tax bill is based on two factors the equalized assessed value (EAV) of your property, and the amount of money your local taxing districts need to operate during the coming year.

Before buying a home, you should speak with a real estate agent to see what the property tax is so you can budget for it. To learn more, visit https://tax.illinois.gov/questionsandanswers/answer.318.html

Getting a preapproval can make the homebuying process smoother, more efficient, and less stressful. It demonstrates your seriousness as a buyer, gives you a clearer understanding of your budget, and positions you favorably in negotiations and competitive situations.

So how long do preapprovals last? They typically last for 90 days. This is because your income, credit history and interest rate all have the potential to change in a short period of time. Questions? Reach out to me at 815-900-9639.

Ever scroll through listings and see that a home is “contingent” or “pending” and wonder what it really means? Here’s a quick breakdown:

🔸 Contingent = The seller has accepted an offer, but certain conditions (aka contingencies) still need to be met. (Like financing, inspection, or home sale.)

🔸 Pending = All contingencies have been satisfied and the deal is almost done. It’s just waiting to close!

⚠️ Pro tip: Even contingent homes might still accept backup offers. So don’t count yourself out just yet!
