Try that in the burbs!

I love living in the city but I need to get the hell out of cook county!
Appeal that sucker...there are law firms which do this on a contingent fee basis for 1/3 of the tax saved. It's well worth it if you see those kinds of increases.

Yeah we're appealing, We actually appealed last year too b/c they have our building listed as a 4 unit and it's really only 2 and an "In-law" apt.

They basically sent us back a letter saying,
No, we decided our assessment is right so you're appeal is denied.

We let it go for some reason but this time we're gonna fight it.

We mailed our appeal a few day's ago, We measured the house outside (that's what our lawyer told us to do) And sent assessments of comparable properties on our block so we'll see what they come back with.

We're trying it on our own before we ask our lawyer to do something we have to pay for.

BTW: If you live in Cook County you can search for assessments Here

Re: Do you commute?

Live in Mchenry, commute to Kenosha everyday for work.
Not too bad of a ride, since the vast majority of it is cutting thru the various farmland across the state-line area. Used to Live in Kenosha, but moved to Mchenry for a year, so I could be a bit closer to School/GF.

But after another year or so, I can likely start telecommuting to work, and I'll probably move back to Evanston or Rogers Park (on the northside) .. I really miss living in the city. Kenosha was quaint and pretty. Mchenry is.. just kind of.. well it's halfway between work/School . But Chicago is home. Always has been, always will be.
