The town

What it is like to live in Shelbyville, and Lake Shelbyville nearby

What it really costs to live here

The lines a payment calculator cannot know — read from the county record and the federal maps for this address, with the source beside each one.

Property tax, from the record

Annual tax, before exemptions

$186 / yr

assessed on soil productivity

Assessed value $3,301 × the 2024 rate of 5.64% for tax code 12001 (Okaw Township), billed in 2025.

Illinois assesses farmland on the productivity of its soil, not on its price, so the bill on a farm sale does not track what was paid; ground taken out of production is reassessed. The rate is the newest the clerk has published; the next levy will move it a little, and a sale can prompt a reassessment. Sources: Shelby County Clerk, Tax Codes and Districts Catalog, 2024 (payable 2025) and the assessor's current file. The bill of record is the treasurer's: Erica Firnhaber, Shelby County Treasurer.

Internet

In Shelby County, 100% of locations can get 100/20 Mbps service; fiber reaches 40.1%; gigabit 43.4%. Wired and fixed-wireless service on offer: Cable, Fiber, Licensed Fixed Wireless, Unlicensed Fixed Wireless.

Taxes (from the record)

Taxes are this parcel’s bill from the county record — assessed value × the clerk’s 2024 rate, before any exemption — not a percentage of the price. The worksheet lets you change it.

Covers the mortgage payment, taxes and insurance. Open the breakdown to add utilities and an upkeep set-aside — both are real monthly costs of owning a home, and we have not guessed at them for you.

Estimates for planning only. This is not an offer to lend, a commitment to lend, or an advertisement of credit terms, and it does not include loan costs such as origination, title or closing fees — your lender provides those on a Loan Estimate. Taxes, insurance, utilities and upkeep are assumptions and will differ from actual amounts. Shelby Realty Services does not guarantee any figure shown here.

Ask about the ground

Tillable and timber acres, road frontage and access, tile, CRP terms, mineral rights, the current lease — the things that decide what a tract is worth come off the FSA records and the title work, and Amanda has them. Call or text and ask.
