A reminder if you are selling a home in Chicago ...
Starting April 1st, anybody who sells a home or piece of real estate in the city of Chicago will owe the city more money.
Earlier this month, the Chicago city council approved a measure that requires the seller to pay an additional $3 per $1,000 as part of the real estate transfer tax.
The additional money collected is part of the CTA bailout deal the state legislature passed recently.

Sounds like this tax increase is only for the City of Chicago. Poor people. I also live in Crook County and no one can afford to live a normal life anymore. Things are getting ridiculous. Maybe they should scrap some plans that aren't really important. Plus, teachers are making plenty of money, plus 3 months vacation and plenty of holidays and getting paid for the entire year. They should stop complaining.
