Sheffield Properties Values Up/Real Estate Taxes Up

BY PAULA ARNETT

By now you should have received your Notice of Proposed Assessed Valuation: For Taxes Payable in 2001 from the Cook County Assessor’s Office. You most likely saw a large increase in your assessed valuation which means your taxes will increase by approximately the same percentage.

The Assessor’s office has made it convenient to appeal the increase by providing the Residential Assessed Valuation Appeal form along with the Notice. The problem in getting your proposed assessed valuation reduced is in finding properties, comparable to yours, that have lower assessed valuations than your own. The Assessor’s office has also made it easy to find property comparisons by listing all of the proposed assessed valuations on their website: www.cookcountyassessor.com .

The deadline for filing an appeal to the Assessor’s office using the Residential Appeal Form is November 21, 2000.

1st Quarter Sheffield Real Estate Market Report

BY PAULA ARNETT

During the first quarter of this year, sales volume for both single family homes and condominiums (including townhomes) has increased by 15.8% and 61.9% respectively over 1999. However, the average selling price for both single family homes and condominiums has remained fairly constant indicating that there are more transactions but prices are similar to those of last year.

The number of condominium sales has increased dramatically, from 30 to 49, or 63.3% from 1999 to 2000 while the average market time has remained stable, with 37 days in 2000 compared to 41 days in 1999. The number of single family homes sales has remained constant with 6 in 2000 and 5 in 1999 but the average market time has dropped 34%, down to 70 days in 2000 compared to 106 days in 1999.

Because there are so few multi-unit transactions in both 2000 and 1999, no significant comments can be made.

Please refer to the accompanying chart for more statistics.
