Understanding & revitalizing our communities

South Suburban Land Bank Mission

Through collaborative efforts, we breathe new life into communities, creating vibrant spaces for residents and businesses of the Chicago Southland.

We boost economic vitality in Chicago’s South Suburbs by acquiring and redeveloping under-utilized properties in collaboration with local governments.

Acquire title to problem or distressed properties

Step 2: Absolve

Eliminate back taxes, liabilities, claims, liens and board up, secure, and maintain the property

Step 3: Activate

Develop, sell, or demolish to support local priorities and economic potential
