AN EXPLANATION OF THE APPEAL PROCESS IN MCHENRY COUNTY

1. What’s my first step to determine if my assessment is accurate? Call your local township assessor. Make sure the information about your property is correct. The local assessor may also be able to show you other properties similar to yours in your neighborhood. You can determine if your property is equitably assessed. He or she may also have sales information. If you have lived in your home for a long time, you may not realize how much it is worth now.

You can also use your favorite local Realtor to get data to compare to any data the county supplies. Or you can take the data given to you by the county and supply it to a Realtor for analysis.
