Cook County Taxpayers - Are Your Real Estate Taxes Too High? 

"The Cook County Assessor will soon begin the process of reassessing all properties located in the City of Chicago as part of the 2015 triennial reassessment. If you own property in the City, the Assessor will mail the taxpayer of record a notice of reassessment indicating the County's proposed change in your property's value. After the Assessor issues this notice you will have a limited period of time in which to appeal the proposed assessment.

It is important for all property owners to be prepared to contest any proposed increases in their assessments. Even if the Assessor proposes no increase or a decrease in your property's value, often it is still in your best interest to appeal your assessment at the Cook County Assessor's Office and/or Cook County Board of Review..."

Vince Oppedisano, an attorney in our office, has published an article about the new triennial reassessment. Here is a link to some of our firm's publications, which includes the full article. Cook County Real Estate Taxes - 2015 Chicago Reassessment

Please take the time to read it and give us a call if you have any questions. 

Also, from time to time in the coming months we will again send our e-letters with explanations on the assessment process both for Cook and the Collar Counties.

Looking forward to corresponding with you!
