Serving Campton Hills from our St. Charles office at 2325 Dean Street, Ste 800F.

Angelillo Law serves clients in Campton Hills on criminal, traffic and residential real estate matters. Below is a plain-language overview of how these matters generally work locally. It is general information only, not legal advice.

Criminal and Traffic Matters in Campton Hills

Criminal and traffic cases from Campton Hills are Kane County cases, generally heard at the Kane County Judicial Center, 37W777 Route 38, St. Charles (16th Judicial Circuit).

Some non-criminal local ordinance violations, such as parking and code matters, may be handled by the village through its own process instead of the circuit court. Ask early, because deadlines can matter.

Residential Real Estate in Campton Hills

• Transfer tax. Check with the village of Campton Hills before closing about any local transfer stamp, final water reading or payoff requirements. State and county transfer taxes still apply to most sales (35 ILCS 200/31), and the buyer and seller file an Illinois Real Estate Transfer Declaration (PTAX-203).
• Permits. The Village of Campton Hills handles building permits; some unincorporated areas nearby fall under Kane County instead, so confirm which applies to a property. Unpermitted work can come up during a sale, so ask about it early.
• Property tax exemptions (Kane County). The Kane County Assessment Office handles homestead exemptions, including the general homestead exemption and the senior exemption for owners 65 and older who live in the home as a primary residence. Many can be filed through the county's online exemption portal.

We can review your contract during the attorney review period and help guide a Campton Hills purchase or sale through closing.
