FAQ
Oak Brook, answered.
Does Oak Brook really have no village property tax?
Yes. Oak Brook is one of the very few Illinois municipalities that levies no village property tax on residential homes, funded instead by its commercial base anchored by Oakbrook Center and major corporate headquarters. Residents still pay DuPage County and school district levies, but the absence of a village layer meaningfully lowers annual carrying costs versus neighboring towns at the same price.
What is the median home price in Oak Brook?
Median list prices have recently run in the high-$700,000s, while average sale prices across the broader inventory have crossed $1 million — reflecting the village's large lots and luxury inventory. Contact us for a breakdown specific to the price tier you're considering.
Which high school do Oak Brook homes feed into?
Most Oak Brook addresses feed into Butler School District 53 for grades K-8 and Hinsdale Central High School (District 86) — a major draw for luxury buyers and a key driver of property values.
How long do homes take to sell in Oak Brook?
Oak Brook is a low-volume, high-value market, so homes typically spend longer on market than most DuPage communities — recently around 46 days — reflecting the smaller buyer pool for $700,000-plus properties and the deliberate pace of luxury purchases.
Do you also serve Naperville, Hinsdale, and Plainfield?
Yes. The Haque Group represents buyers and sellers across Oak Brook and the surrounding western suburbs including Naperville, Hinsdale, and Plainfield.
