Who's writing this guide?

I'm Brad Esposito with Family Property Buyers in St. Charles. Will County is south and east of our home base, and I look at houses there in any condition.

Here's what to know before you sell.

Which question brought you here?

Do you buy houses in Will County?
Where is the Will County courthouse?
Where do I pay Will County property taxes?
Is any of Aurora in Will County?
Do I need to fix anything before selling?

Where do you pay Will County property taxes?

The Will County Treasurer is in the Will County Office Building, 302 N. Chicago St., Joliet (815-740-4675).

If the taxes are behind, get the exact balance first. Past-due taxes are typically paid from the sale at closing.

Where are Will County court cases heard?

The Will County Courthouse is at 100 W. Jefferson St. in downtown Joliet (815-727-8592). It's the home of the 12th Judicial Circuit.

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

Is your Aurora address in Will County?

Maybe. Aurora sits in four counties, and part of it is in Will County. Your property tax bill names the county, and that tells you which offices to call.

What if the house needs work?

You don't have to fix it.

We buy as-is: no showings, no repairs needed. No agent commissions when you sell directly to us.

We can often cover closing costs. Your written offer shows your number before you sign.

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.

What happens if you reach out to us?

Tell me about the house. Use the form, call or text (331) 422-3828, or email [email protected].
We look at the house together, in person or by phone.
You get a written cash offer within 24 hours of our first visit or meeting. Show it to your attorney or family before you decide.
If you say yes, we close on your timeline, often in a few weeks.
