2011 Recent:

Thanks to those who attended the MRED update seminar presented by Jerry Hoffman. The information Jerry gave us will cut considerable time off of our data research as the extensive tools available online provide quick and easy access to time and cost saving information that we use everyday.

Thank you to all who attended our final continuing education classes for 2011. Our instructor, Elizabeth Kern, provided an informative and entertaining day at Doubletree in Mundelein where we enjoyed lunch and snacks as well.

On Monday March 21, 2011 Appraisal State Board Members Jim Blaydes and Tim McCarthy joined us at Steven's Steakhouse in Gurnee for a presentation of the New Rules. This presentation covered changes that appraisers NEED TO KNOW and was a very informative session. Thanks to all who attended!

We recently hosted a breakfast meeting at the Bellagio Cafe in Libertyville for a session with the MRED representative, Jerry Hoffman, who provided extensive information for appraisers regarding the use of Realist. The meeting was well attended and everyone left with new ideas on how to best utilize Realist's capabilities. Thank you to Jerry and all who attended!

2010 Recent:

Our December meeting with Brian Weaver was a great success. As always, Brian provided an informative and entertaining afternoon that left everyone with a better understanding of how the IDFPR works. The lunch and the service at the Doubletree Hotel in Mundelein was outstanding and we plan to hold more events at this location.

We recently had a visit from official from the Lake County and McHenry County Tax Departments who presented an overview of the tax appeal process and the relationships between appraisers, assessors, and the County. Thanks to all who attended.

In August, a group of us attended the ICAP seminar in Lisle for an exciting day of information and a great lunch. The Lake County Chapter provided free transportion to and from Lisle which helped alleviate extra traffic and allowed guests to sit back and relax for the ride. Thank you to all who attended.
