The Illinois Residential Appeal Narrative is a document filed with the Illinois Property Tax Appeal Board (STAB) in order to appeal the assessed value of a residential property. The Appeal Narrative outlines the reasons why the homeowner believes that the assessed value of the property is too high. It typically includes details about the property itself, such as the square footage, age, condition, and any improvements that have been made, as well as any comparable properties in the neighborhood that support the homeowner’s appeal. The Appeal Narrative may also include other relevant information, such as the market trends in the area, recent sales, and any other factors that the homeowner believes should be taken into consideration. There are two main types of Illinois Residential Appeal Narrative: the Standard Appeal Narrative and the Enhanced Appeal Narrative. The Standard Appeal Narrative is the more basic version and is typically used for simpler appeals. The Enhanced Appeal Narrative is more comprehensive, and is used for more complicated appeals.
