Property Tax Calculation
Property tax in Illinois is imposed by local government taxing districts (e.g. school districts, municipalities, counties) and administered by local officials.
Market Value
Market value has been defined by The Supreme Court as the sale price of real estate as agreed upon between a willing buyer and willing seller, with neither being under duress to buy or sell.
Assessed Value
Assessment is the basis upon which taxing authorities tax a property. Real property in Illinois is required by Illinois Statute to be assessed at 33.33% of its market value.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Exemptions are available in Dekalb County, which may lower the property's tax bill. These are deducted from the property's assessed value to give the property's taxable value.
We have no information about whether any exemptions currently apply to this property. Therefore, the taxable value will be equal to the assessed value.
Property Tax
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the property's assessed value by the tax rates applicable to it and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay.
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs or to non ad-valorem taxes. For more information please visit Dekalb County's Assessor, Treasurer or look up this property's current valuation and tax situation.
