function. It should be noted that due to the transitory nature of addresses, our address file might contain errors or omissions. If you experience difficulties, please call the Cook County Assessors Office Taxpayer Information Department at 312-443-7550. When entering the street name of your desired property, to aid in your search, please do not enter the street suffix, such as St., Dr., Ave., etc. You will then need to enter the city name in the box on the third line of the section. Please note that you do not need to select a class to conduct a search.Once the required fields of information are entered, click once on the "Search by Address" button to submit your search. This will bring up a page with your desired PIN, corresponding address, city, neighborhood, class code, township, age, description of class code, assessed value, and a description of the propertys characteristics. To compare your propertys assessed value to other similar properties on your block or in your neighborhood, you may enter a range of addresses on the search page. For example, you may enter 400 500 N Main in Chicago. This may be useful if you are considering an appeal based on lack of uniformity.

If you do not know your neighborhood code, simply check your "Notice of Proposed Assessed Valuation" or click on the highlighted "Show Me Borders" for a listing of each neighborhood code and its street boundaries.Once you have selected your neighborhood code click once on the "Search by Neighborhood" button and you will see multiple pages of properties. If you wish to refine your search for similar properties click on the "Choose Class" drop-down box and select a specific class of property. This function is useful when comparing assessed value, although it is still important to look at each individual propertys characteristics. Properties in the same class with like characteristics are considered "comparables" and can be used in a residential appeal. View Instructions Close Instructions The most current assessment information will only be available for properties in triennial reassessment townships that have been mailed their "Notice of Proposed Assessed Valuation." For a listing of available townships and mailing dates click here. Please read the following instructions for information on how to best conduct an assessment search for non-residential property. Search Help : If you are having difficulty finding a property or wish to expand your search, try entering less information. For instance, in the "Search by Address" function leave the direction box blank, or only enter the first few letters of the street or city. In the "Search by PIN" function, if you enter only the first seven numbers of your PIN (i.eif your index number is 01-01-123-456-0000, and you only insert 01-01-123) this will expand your search to include all the properties that share those seven digits in ascending PIN order. This will widen the parameters for the database and improve the possibility that a record is found.

Be Careful What You Use The Money For Home Mortgage Rates Up A Bit Both 30 and 15-Year Rates Up, Ending A Three Week Stretch Of Drops Inflation Isn't A Problem Consumer Prices Dip 0.2 Percent In November, After Flat October Be Your Own Real Estate Broker NEW YORK, May 22, 2004 (CBS) The housing market is hot. In fact, homes are in such high demand that many sellers are wondering if they even need to hire a real estate agent to broker the deal. Financial adviser Ray Martin gave some tips on The Saturday Early Show for owners who want to sell a home themselves. Home values are up, mortgage rates are low and properties in hot markets are selling in days. The only fly in the ointment for many sellers is the traditional six percent commission paid to real estate brokers who make the deal. As home values continue to skyrocket, the broker commission skyrockets as well. Meanwhile, it seems as though these brokers are doing nothing more than watching the home sell and then collecting a large commission. The thought of having to pay brokers $10,000 or more to sell a home that fetches a buyer in less than week is causing many sellers to stop and think: "Do I really need to spend that money?" FSBO (For Sale By Owner) can be a good option for some people, Martin says. If your home is in a hot location, at a price that is affordable to many potential buyers, and similar homes are in short supply, this can be a good strategy. But, Martins says, FSBO is not for everyone. The following are three potential pitfalls of being your own broker: Setting A Price: The housing market is constantly changing and you really need to have a good feel for the market in order to set a reasonable price. You don't want to lose money by naming a price that's too low, but your don't want to frighten buyers away by over-charging. Getting the Word Out: Putting a "For Sale" sign in your yard is probably not going to sell your house. Most buyers don't have time to cruise around neighborhoods, searching for signs. When you list your home with a broker, they place your information in the area's MLS (Multiple Listing Service). This alerts all real estate agents in the area that your home is for sale -- making it easy for them to pinpoint potential buyers and bring them by for a visit. You can't do this alone. Becoming Emotionally Involved: Selling a home is the second-most emotional transaction you'll ever make, Martin says, second only to buying a home. Mixing emotion and business is not a good thing. If a buyer comes through the door and immediately points out your home's flaws instead of the beautifully restored floors or lovingly painted walls, it's going to hurt. You may be tempted to turn down this buyer's offer, even if it's fair. This is where a realtor can help. It's not a home to them, it's a business deal -- one they want to close quickly and collect on. Despite these pitfalls, Martin says he is not trying to steer everyone away from selling their homes themselves. He says you need to be aware of the pitfalls and if you think you can tackle them, give it a try -- particularly if you're in a hot market. You can try FSBO for a set amount of time, and if you're not successful, you can turn to a broker. If nothing else, use the knowledge that you could be your own broker to negotiate a commission with your broker. That storied six percent is a result of tradition, not law; nowhere does it say that you have to pay brokers six percent. There are conflicting numbers on how many homeowners are selling their homes themselves. About 14 percent of sellers went solo in 2003, according to the National Association of Realtors. The Boston Globe newspaper reviewed sales in its area and found that closer to 25 percent of sales were FSBO. There's no question that there are a lot of services targeted to sellers looking to go FSBO. If you are looking for an alternative to a traditional real estate agent, here are some popular options: Flat Fee Brokers: There seem to be two major players here -- Help-U-Sell and Assist-2-Sell . Both companies are franchises that connect you with local licensed real estate agents. You show your home yourself, and these agents perform all other duties of a traditional broker. The best part, Martin says, is that you pay them one flat fee that varies based on home's value and location. If you pay them a little more, the realtors from these companies will show your house too. An example: a Help-U-Sell customer in Chicago was selling his home for $345,000. The six percent commission would have totaled $21,000. Instead, he paid Help-U-Sell $4,950 to sell his home. If the agent lists your home on the MLS, and another broker brings you a buyer, you will have to pay that broker their two or three percent commission. FSBO Marketing: Other companies such as FSBO.com and ForSaleByOwner.com offer you a variety of marketing options at different price points. You can choose to have your home listed on the companies' Web sites. You can pay more and have yard signs and color brochures designed for your home. Pay even more and have a virtual tour included in your home's listing. Each company is different and offers different packages. Martin says the ultimate packages, which costs $500 or more, allow you to list your home on the MLS -- the same place real estate agents list houses. Again, there's a catch here: if a buyer is brought to your home by an agent who saw the listing on MLS, you do have to pay that broker's two or three percent commission. Negotiated Broker Commission: Again, Martin says you don't have to pay a six percent commission. So don't! In fact, commissions now average a bit over five percent, according to a survey by Real Trends publishers. If your home is on the expensive side and in a hot market, have a serious conversation with your potential broker. Remind him or her that if you list with them, they will get paid. But if you strike out on your own, they get nothing. Isn't one or two percent better than nothing? MMIV, CBS Broadcasting Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Investment Property for a

How to Sell an Investment Property for a Loss - eHow.com Clear Instructions on How To Do (just about) Everything Web eHow.com Home Finance & Business Center Real Estate How to Sell an Investment Property for a Loss Selling an investment property for a loss will give you a tax write-off directly against your income. Steps: 1. Calculate your "basis;" this is the base variable used to calculate the gain or loss on the sale of a property. Your original basis is comprised of the property's purchase price plus the buying expenses (non-recurring escrow costs such as title insurance, escrow fees, recording fees, transfer taxes, commission, tax service, deed preparation, credit report, appraisal fee and termite inspection) upon acquisition. 2. Calculate your adjusted basis. The adjusted basis is the original basis plus improvements made to the property while you've owned it. 3. Sell the property. With an all-cash transaction the tax event occurs in the year the property is sold. 4. Calculate depreciation. (According to the I.R.S., every asset has a useable life, and the amount of depreciation is calculated according to the life of a certain asset. Consult with the I.R.S. or an accountant/C.P.A. to determine the correct amount of depreciation you should use.) Use the total amount of depreciation taken on tax returns for the total time the property has been held. 5. Calculate the expenses of the sale. Expenses include real estate agent commission (if any) and any other expenses directly associated with the sale of the property. 6. Add the expenses of the sale to the adjusted cost basis. This is your new adjusted basis. 7. Add the total depreciation to the sales price, and subtract from the new adjusted basis. This is the amount of your loss. 8. Assure yourself of a loss by calculating that the adjusted cost basis of the property plus the expense of sale will be greater than the gross sales price plus all depreciation. 9. File I.R.S. form 4797, Sale of Business Property. Tips: Points are not deducted as a buying expense, but are amortized over the life of the loan. Properties held for investment must have been used for personal use less than 14 days throughout the year. There are other ways to sell investment property, such as through an installment sale or an exchange. Consult a C.P.A or exchange facilitator for assistance. These selling options are complicated and require the assistance of a trained professional. Sometimes a seller will agree to pay a certain number of the borrower's points for obtaining a loan. When a seller pays points for a loan, they are considered to be selling expenses (just like a commission) and can be added to the adjusted cost basis. Warnings: In order to include certain selling costs, such as repairs required to sell the property, these costs have to occur within a specific period of time before the sale to qualify. Check with your accountant or C.P.A.
