- How cheap are houses in Illinois land banks?
- Priced Illinois land bank inventory starts at $350 right now, with 14 listings under $10,000 and 1 under $1,000. Cheap structures generally need renovation; the cheapest parcels are usually side lots sold to neighbors.
- Are these real Illinois listings?
