Cook County property owners: your 2025 2nd installment property tax bill is due October 1. 🏡
A few things to know:
• If your mortgage escrows property taxes, your lender generally pays the bill from your escrow account. If your taxes increased, you may see an escrow shortage and a higher mortgage payment after your next escrow analysis.
• If you do not escrow, you are responsible for paying the bill directly.
• Your bill may change because of assessment updates, taxing district budget increases, shifts in the tax burden, or changes to your exemptions.
Not sure what you’re looking at? We’re happy to help you review your bill and determine whether anything needs your attention.
