What Country Club Hills homeowners should know
Country Club Hills sits about 25 miles south of downtown Chicago at the interchange of Interstate 57 and Interstate 80, in Cook County’s Bremen Township area. The land was originally Cooper’s Grove, a German farming settlement dating to the 1800s, before developer J.E. Merrion laid out the city in 1955 with half-acre lots and ranch-style homes aimed at middle-income families. Residents incorporated the city in 1958, and most of the housing stock still dates to that first wave of construction through the 1960s. The city is almost entirely one ZIP code, 60478, and is home to the Chicago area’s largest Walmart Supercenter along the Gatling Square Mile retail corridor. Country Club Hills also carries one of the heavier property tax burdens in the south suburbs, which factors into a lot of owners’ decisions to sell rather than keep paying and repairing an aging house.

Why Country Club Hills owners sell as-is
Property taxes well above the national average
An analysis of 2017 data put Country Club Hills’ effective property tax rate at 4.54% of home value, nearly four times the 1.19% national average, and 11th highest among 51 south suburbs studied. For owners on a fixed income or holding an inherited house, that tax bill alone can make keeping the property harder than selling it.
Original 1950s ranch homes need updating
Most of the city was built out quickly starting in 1955 on half-acre lots, and a lot of that first generation of ranch and split-level homes still has original mechanicals, roofs and kitchens. Bringing one up to a traditional buyer’s expectations can mean a substantial repair bill before it ever goes on the market.
Inherited homes from the founding generation
Many of the families who bought in during the city’s 1955-1958 founding years are now passing those houses to adult children, often living out of state. An inherited home that’s sat vacant or been a rental for years usually needs work that heirs juggling probate and distance would rather not manage themselves.

Cook County
Country Club Hills is in Cook County, so probate cases are filed with the Circuit Court of Cook County, Probate Division, at the Richard J. Daley Center in Chicago. Illinois foreclosures are judicial, and Cook County foreclosure auctions are typically run by selling officers like The Judicial Sales Corporation (One South Wacker Drive, Chicago) or Intercounty Judicial Sales Corporation. Unpaid property taxes go to the Cook County Treasurer’s Annual Tax Sale, administered with the Cook County Clerk, with chronically delinquent parcels eligible for the county’s Scavenger Sale.

Selling a house for cash in Country Club Hills
My property taxes in Country Club Hills feel unaffordable. Does that affect selling?
It can. Country Club Hills has one of the higher effective property tax rates in the south suburbs, and buyers factor that carry cost into their offers on the traditional market. If the tax bill is part of what’s pushing you to sell, a cash sale skips the months of carrying costs, repairs and showings that a traditional listing would add on top of taxes you’re already paying.
I inherited a house here that’s still got its original 1950s kitchen and mechanicals. Do I need to renovate before selling?
No. A lot of Country Club Hills’ housing stock dates to the city’s 1955-1958 founding years, and original systems, roofs and finishes are common in inherited homes. A cash buyer prices the house as-is, accounting for that work in the offer, so you don’t have to invest in updates just to get it sold.
Where does Cook County probate get handled for a Country Club Hills property?
Probate for any Cook County property, including Country Club Hills, is filed with the Circuit Court of Cook County’s Probate Division at the Richard J. Daley Center in downtown Chicago. Once an executor or administrator has legal authority over the estate, the house can be sold as-is without waiting to fix it up first.
Do I pay any fees or closing costs when I sell to BAM in Country Club Hills?
No. There are no commissions or fees, and we pay all of the normal seller closing costs. The offer we make is the amount you walk away with, minus only what you owe, like a mortgage payoff or back taxes.
