Who's writing this guide?

I'm Brad Esposito with Family Property Buyers in St. Charles. I buy Elburn houses directly from owners, in any condition.

I look at the house once, then you get a written offer you can take your time with. And if your house would likely do better listed with an agent, I'll tell you.

How did Elburn grow?

Union Pacific’s Elburn train town page says the rail line through Elburn was finished in 1854, before the town was incorporated. Metra brought commuter service back between Elburn and Chicago in 2006. Village records still describe the old town plat as the Village of Blackberry (now Elburn).

So Elburn has older homes near downtown and newer subdivisions near the station. I look at each house on its own terms.

How do you close out village utilities?

The Elburn Finance Department handles utility billing. Call 630-365-5060, Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., or stop by Village Hall at 301 E. North St. Ask what the village needs for a final bill before closing, and tell your closing attorney.

Which offices handle taxes and values?

Elburn is in Blackberry Township. Your township assessor is on the Kane County township assessor list. Taxes go to the Kane County Treasurer, 719 S. Batavia Ave., Geneva.

Where are court cases heard?

Kane County probate is heard at the Kane County Courthouse, 100 S. Third St., Geneva.

If a probate, divorce or other court case touches the house, talk to your attorney before you sign anything.

What if the house needs work?

You don't have to fix it.

We buy as-is: no showings, no repairs needed. Selling directly to us means you don't list with an agent.

We can often cover closing costs. Every cost explained up front, before you sign anything.

How do you check out any cash buyer before you sign?

Get the offer in writing. It should show the price and who pays which costs.
Read the whole contract. Ask about any line you don’t understand before you sign.
Have your own attorney. An Illinois real estate attorney can review the contract for you.
Check that the business is registered. You can look it up on the Illinois Secretary of State business search.
Don’t pay upfront fees. You shouldn’t have to pay anyone just to sell your house.
Ask about your right to cancel. Illinois law gives owners behind on a mortgage or taxes extra protections in some sales. An attorney can tell you what applies to you.

This is general information, not legal advice. Talk to an Illinois attorney about your situation.

We look at the house together, in person or by phone.
