Helpful Illinois rule

Transfer taxes on a house sale

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 and the transaction’s taxable value can change the amount. Normal is in McLean County, and the property’s county and city determine which local taxes apply. Not sure? Call us — we’ll sort it out with you.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including the Illinois state, county and city transfer taxes.
