An Illinois sale-cost rule
Check state and local real estate transfer taxes
For a taxable transfer, Illinois charges 50 cents for each $500 of taxable value, or part of $500. A county can add 25 cents for each $500, and some cities impose their own transfer taxes. Exemptions, taxable value, and the property’s county and city affect the amount and who pays.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Illinois state, county and city transfer taxes. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.
