Illinois assesses property at one-third of market value, and farmland on its soil productivity rather than its price. The assessed value is the county's figure for taxation; it is not an appraisal and not an estimate of what the property would sell for.

What the property tax runs

Annual tax, before exemptions

$133 / yr

assessed on soil productivity

Assessed value $2,361 × 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.

Recorded sales

No arm's-length transfer recorded on this parcel since 2017, the start of the county record we hold. Transfers between family members, nominal-consideration deeds and court sales are not shown.

From PTAX-203 transfer declarations recorded with the county — public record, arm's-length sales only. A sale marked “part of a larger sale” was one declaration covering more than one parcel; the price is the whole transaction's. Not an MLS figure.
