I don’t suppose any of you are property tax experts in Chicago, eh?
Warning: This is about money.
We have a quaint little house on the outskirts of Chicago’s south side. Our property taxes are like 6K a year. Our house and yard are on two different property index numbers, and one of them is in the previous owner’s name. I also can’t figure out how to get the Cook County Treasurer to give us our homeowner’s exemption for any year since I bought the place about six years ago.
What the fuck am I supposed to do with this shit? The Cook County Treasurer’s office are useless, and the Cook County Assessor’s office can’t tell me why my property taxes have gone up drastically while the value of our home has been cut in more than half.
HELP ME EVERYONE OR PITY ME I LIKE PITY TOO

Try going through your elected representative. They tend to get much better responses from the bureaucracy.
