Shelby County parcel 2013-06-19-401-006
Is the assessment on 1837 E 1450 North Rd Shelbyville, IL 62565 fair?
Assessed at $112,663 as residential, Shelbyville 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
31.3%
of what it sold for (middle half 29–34.1%); the statute says 33.33%
This parcel among them

Their assessed values

median; $14,405 to $114,774. This parcel: $112,663
Your assessment is higher than 38 of the 39 homes near you that sold in the last 3 years. The neighbourhood is assessed at 31.3% 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.

Assessed value $112,663 × the 2024 rate of 5.78% for tax code 20001 (Shelbyville Township), billed in 2025.
The owner-occupied figures take the General Homestead ($6,000 off the assessed value) and Senior Citizens ($8,000) exemptions; the senior freeze, veterans’ and home-improvement exemptions are not shown and can lower a bill further. 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.
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.
