Is the assessment on 1 Chad Ave Sullivan, IL 61951 fair?
Assessed at $93,050 as residential, SULLIVAN 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
29.1%
of what it sold for (middle half 25.1–34.5%); the statute says 33.33%

Their assessed values
$39,112
median; $23,330 to $150,504. This parcel: $93,050
At 24.3% of what you paid, this parcel is assessed about where the neighbours who sold are (29.1%). That is what a fair assessment looks like.
This parcel's own recorded sale: $383,500 in Jul 2026; the current assessment is 24.3% of that. A recent arm's-length sale of the property itself is the evidence a Board of Review weighs most.
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.

How an appeal actually works here
- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
