Property Tax Appeals!
Property Tax Protests: Get ready to do something! Last year property assessments continued to rise throughout our area in spite of the decline in home prices across the country and locally. This lead to numerous challenges to assessments….and questions about procedures to protest. Here are some quick answers on what to do depending upon where you live:
Winnebago County: Tax assessments go out published August 5th and you have 30 days to file an appeal. We are planning to have appeal forms at our office so please call us if you want to drop by to pick one up...or let us know if you want one by email at HotProp@aol.com. Appeal forms are also available at the Winnebago County Supervisor of Assessment’s Office, 405 Elm St., Room 301, Rockford, IL 61101 or send a self-addressed, stamped envelope to have a form mailed. You have until September 10 to return the completed form to Winnebago County. Email or call us with questions. If you would like to hire a specialist to handle your appeal, call or email and we will give you our recommendations.
Boone and Ogle County: Have not been sent out and probably will not be until October or November. Call Boone County at 815-544-2958 or Ogle County at 815-732-1150 for forms and dates as we get closer to that time.
