General Homestead Exemption (GHE) (35 ILCS 200/15-175) The amount of exemption is the increase in the current year's equalized assessed value (EAV), above the 1977 EAV, up to a maximum of $10,000 in Cook County, $8,000 in counties contiguous to Cook County, and $6,000 in all other counties.
All homeowners who qualify for the Homestead Exemption will receive a flat $26,200 property tax exemption on the market value of the home. For example, an eligible owner of a home valued at $100,000 would be billed as if the home was valued at $73,800.
How do I change my property taxes? You can get your property taxes lowered by proving that your house is worth less than the assessor says it is. In Cook County, you can appeal the value of your property with the Cook County Assessor. You can also appeal the value of your property to the Cook County Board of Review.
Most homeowners are eligible for this exemption if they own and occupy their property as their principal place of residence.
Senior Citizen Homestead Exemption – Homeowners age 65 or older and living in their own home could be entitled to an additional homestead exemption.

Benefit: Following the Illinois Property Tax Code, this exemption lowers the equalized assessed value of the property by $8,000.
Homestead exemptions primarily work by reducing your home value in the eyes of the tax assessor. So if you qualify for a $50,000 exemption and your home is worth $200,000, then you will be taxed as if your home is worth only $150,000.
