How to appeal in Calumet Township

  1. Check whether your home is assessed higher per square foot than similar homes in your Calumet neighborhood. Our free check does this in 30 seconds.
  2. Gather evidence: 3–5 comparable homes with lower assessments, or recent sales of similar homes.
  3. File online with the Assessor while the Calumet window is open. Filing is free and no lawyer is required.
  4. If the Assessor doesn't lower your value enough, file again with the Board of Review when its Calumet window opens.
  5. Still not satisfied? You may appeal to the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board (PTAB) after the Board of Review decision.
