    Dear Property Owner,

    The Cook County Assessor's Office is required by law to reassess your property every three

    years. A reassessment is the first step in determining your share of local property taxes.

    In an effort to make the assessment process as transparent and accessible as possible, my officehas revised your notice to include more information than ever. On the reverse side, you will findyour proposed 2011 assessment. You will also find an estimated market value for your property, anassessment history, mortgage and release information, and a total annual property tax amount. Ihave also included sample comparables of other properties in your neighborhood.

    It is important that you carefully review the information on this notice, as any change in assessedvalue will be reflected on your second-installment tax bill payable in 2012.

    Many factors, including foreclosures and changes in the market, contribute to determining value.However, the main consideration is sales of similar properties in your area.

    We strive for fairness and accuracy in our work at the Assessors Office. If you believe that wehave made an error, please file a residential appeal form by the deadline date indicated on thereverse side of this letter. You can file an appeal by visiting any of our offices listed below, or youcan file online by visiting our Web site at www.cookcountyassessor.com. It is not necessary to hirean attorney to appeal your assessment.

    To obtain property comparables, you may also consult the following newspaper(s):

    I will continue to look for additional ways to make the assessment process easier to navigate andunderstand for all Cook County homeowners.

    Sincerely,

    Esta es su "Notificacin de Evaluacin Propuesto".
