As a Chicagoland area real estate agent, I travel through Beecher often, and The Old Gun Shop Coffee House is a great place to grab a coffee, some wifi, and get some work done.

The summary of this transfer stamp process is that you have to have the Chicago Heights inspection completed (see above on this page for details on this City inspection process), need to have the final water bill paid, then can go to the City with the Transfer Stamp application and pay the transfer stamp fee.  

Upon payment of the transfer stamps, you will receive a receipt from the City, and that receipt needs to be provided to the title company facilitating the closing as proof that the transfer stamp was paid for and received.
