We are in the unfortunate situation of evicting a tenant from a property purchased from a bank a few months ago.   We placed an order of possession with the sheriff today and was told the timeline is 4 weeks.  However, I have heard rumors that its more like 12.

Anyone done a recent cook county eviction?  

What was the timeline you experienced?  (Lenght) 

Thanks

4 to 6 weeks was my last experience and it was about this time of year as well. We have not had a very severe winter so hopefully they are not too backed up.

Plus cross your fingers your tenant or their attorney does not file some crazy motion. If a motion is filed the Sheriff will sit on it until motion is resolved.

Best of luck with it. Its not a pleasant part of the job.
