FOIA Request to DuPage County Recorder Regarding Property Sales Records/Transactions on May 2, 2025.
As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, Prairie State Wire has submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the DuPage County Recorder in Illinois. We are seeking access to records detailing property sales transactions within the county. The requested information includes a list of all properties and their most recent sale, along with all available metadata related to these sales.
Specifically, we have asked for details such as the Recorded Instrument ID, Transaction Date, Transaction Amount, Transaction Type, Buyer Name, and Seller Name. This data is crucial for our role in gathering and reporting news that holds public institutions accountable and provides transparency to the public.
We have also requested a fee waiver for this information due to our status as a media organization. As members of The Coalition Opposing Governmental Secrecy—a 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Missouri Corporation—we are dedicated to investigating state and federal governmental agencies by leveraging Freedom of Information and Sunshine Laws. Our goal is to pull back the curtain on government actions and help inform the American electorate.
