Course Description
This course is an introduction to the basic principles and concepts of the Illinois property tax system. Property taxes in Illinois are the major source of revenues for local unites of government, schools and local taxing bodies and districts. Over the past 30 years, property taxes have become a major expense for property owners and can be an obstacle to ownership.

The purpose of this course is to give real estate agents a better understanding of the system and provide a simple approach to the basics of property taxes.
