Triennial reassessment notices were mailed to Northfield Township homeowners on June 17^th. The following cities, towns, and villages are in Northfield Township: Glencoe, Glenview, Northbrook (majority), Northfield (west ¾), Prospect Heights (east edge), Wilmette (west edge), and Des Plaines (north edge). Homeowners in Northfield Township have one month to appeal their assessment at the Assessor’s office (there will be a second opportunity to appeal later in the year at the Board of Review, whether you appeal at the Assessor’s office or not). The deadline for appealing at the Assessor’s office is July 31^st.

The Cook County Assessor’s office will release and post valuation statistics for Northfield Township here when they become available.

Successfully appealing in a reassessment year may provide 3 years of savings on future property tax bills.
