Effingham County parcel 10-15-030-023

Is the assessment on 13162 N 1800th St Teutopolis IL 62467 fair?

Assessed at $155,500 as residential, St Francis Township. Below: how the homes near it that actually sold are assessed against what they sold for, and where this one sits among them. Two facts from the county's own record — not an opinion of value, which is what an appeal ultimately needs and what we will give you if you ask.

How the neighbourhood is assessed

29%

of what it sold for (middle half 25.5–34.8%); the statute says 33.33%

Their assessed values

$52,250

median; $8,630 to $144,750. This parcel: $155,500

Your assessment is higher than 39 of the 39 homes near you that sold in the last 3 years. The neighbourhood is assessed at 29% of what it sells for, under the statutory third, so sitting above the neighbours is not by itself over-assessment; what matters is whether those homes are like yours.

The homes that sold near it

Arm's-length sales recorded with the county in the last 3 years, nearest first, with the assessed value the county carries for each today. Whether any of them is like this house — size, age, condition — is the question the record cannot answer and an appeal turns on.

Prices from PTAX-203 transfer declarations; assessed values from the county assessor's current file (so a home reassessed after its sale shows today's figure against yesterday's price). Not MLS figures. Nothing here names an owner.

How an appeal actually works here

  1. Talk to the assessor first. Many differences are a record error — a garage that came down, a square footage that was never right — and get fixed with a phone call, no appeal needed.
  2. The county Board of Review. A written complaint in the window after the township's assessments are published each year; the office can tell you the dates for this township. Evidence: a recent appraisal, comparable sales, or comparable assessments (the equity argument — the table above is where that starts).
  3. Then the state. A Board of Review decision can go to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board within 30 days of the decision — its forms and rules are on ptab.illinois.gov.

Ask us to look at it properly

The table above is where an equity argument starts, not where it ends: a Board of Review wants an opinion of market value, and that means someone who has stood in the houses. We will look at 13162 N 1800th St Teutopolis IL 62467 against what has sold and tell you honestly whether an appeal looks worth the trouble. No cost, no obligation.

No obligation, and we will not pass your details to anyone else.
