Maine Township 2019 Triennial Reassessments Mailed

MaineTriennial reassessment notices were mailed to Maine Township homeowners on May 7th. The following cities, towns, and villages are in Maine Township: Des Plaines, Glenview, Morton Grove, Niles, Park Ridge, and Rosemont. Homeowners in Maine 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 June 7th.

The Cook County Assessor’s office will release and post valuation statistics for Maine Township here when they become available. We suggest homeowners review their assessment annually, particularly in a reassessment year, to ensure they do not pay more than their fair share in real estate taxes. Successfully appealing in a reassessment year may provide 3 years of savings on future property tax bills. If you would like a free analysis of your Maine Township home, in comparison to similar properties, we would be happy to conduct a “no obligation” analysis and provide you with a free estimate of how much we believe we could help you save with an appeal.
