Schaumburg Township Tax Notices
You will be getting your assessment notices in your mailbox soon with either good or bad news depending on your perspective.
"Assessment notices for Schaumburg were mailed out Feb 23, 2010. The deadline to file an appeal for this town is 
Mar 26, 2010. The deadline to file documentation is Apr 12, 2010."
I was at the Schaumburg Township office yesterday and there were many people there protesting their taxes which I think is great. Be prepared for lines and some waiting time and they do have chairs there for you to sit on until called.
If you feel your assessment is unfair - please protest it. I have written many posts about the inaccuracies and discrepancies in the way that Cook County levies taxes. Being a realtor and seeing so many homes it's commonplace. What's so upsetting is that mistakes are so commonplace in the system.
