How Orland Park Property Taxes Work

Orland Park property taxes follow Cook County's classification system. Residential properties are assessed at 10% of fair market value. Commercial and industrial parcels get assessed at 25%. The rest of Illinois uses a flat 33.33% rate under 35 ILCS 200. Cook County is the exception. The lower assessment rate for homes does not mean lower taxes. Tax rates adjust to make up the difference.

Multiple taxing districts serve Orland Park. These include Consolidated High School District 230, various elementary school districts, the Orland Park Recreation and Parks Department, the Orland Park Library, and the village itself. Each district sets its own levy. The combined levies determine your total rate. Two homes in Orland Park can have different rates if they sit in different school districts. Your property tax record breaks down every district and what you owe to each.

Tax bills come out twice a year. The first installment is typically due in March. The second is due around August. Dates can shift. Late payments carry a 1.5% per month penalty under Illinois law.

Orland Park falls in Orland Township for assessment purposes. The triennial reassessment cycle means your property gets a new look every three years. The township assessor does the initial valuation. Then the county assessor reviews and may adjust it. Between cycles, values can change if you add on to your home or if there is a broad adjustment.

The equalization factor set by the Illinois Department of Revenue also plays a role. This multiplier adjusts Cook County assessed values to line up with the state average. It changes each year and affects every Orland Park tax bill. Check the IDOR property tax page for the current factor.

Appeal Your Orland Park Assessment

If your Orland Park assessment seems off, file an appeal. Start with the Cook County Board of Review. Each township has its own filing window that opens and closes on set dates. Miss the window and you wait a full year. Gather comparable sales data and evidence that shows your property is valued too high.

After the Board of Review, you can take your case to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board. Under 35 ILCS 200, property owners have the right to challenge their assessment. A successful appeal can lower your bill going forward. The appeal and its result become part of your Orland Park property tax record. Many south suburban homeowners appeal each cycle and see real savings.
