Summer Fun and Taxes
(What a pair!)

Dear Friends,

Another summer is whirling by and I hope you’ve all had the opportunity to enjoy it in some way, whether through vacationing, warm-weather activities, or simply relaxing!

As we’re nearing the end of July, one thing to keep in mind is that you have until September 10th to appeal your property tax assessment here in Champaign County. If you own a home here, you’ve likely noticed that those assessed values just keep going up! Your assessment may or may not be accurate, and if it’s not, you could be paying more in taxes than necessary. In other words, you could have more money in your pocket for next summer’s vacation:-)

Here’s a link to an article I put together on how to appeal your property taxes, as a starting point. If anyone needs comparable sales information to take to the Board of Appeals, let me know and I’d be happy to help out. And, of course, if you have questions, please do get in touch with me.

Wishing you a fun-filled summer!

All my best,
Shannon
