How much does a cemetery plot cost in Illinois?

Cemetery plot prices in Illinois vary significantly by region, cemetery, and plot type. Resale plots from private sellers typically sell for 20–50% less than what cemeteries charge for new plots. Major metro areas tend to be the most expensive.

Can I sell a cemetery plot I already own in Illinois?

Yes. Illinois law allows cemetery plot owners to transfer their deed to a third-party buyer. The cemetery itself must usually approve the transfer and may charge a transfer fee, but they cannot prevent the sale. List your plot on PlotListings to reach buyers searching specifically in Illinois.

What types of plots are available?

Listings include single plots, double (companion) plots, family plots, crypts in mausoleums, and columbarium niches for cremated remains. New listings are added regularly as sellers join PlotListings.

Are veteran cemetery plots in Illinois for sale?

National cemeteries operated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs provide free burial for eligible veterans, but those plots cannot be bought or sold. Private cemeteries in Illinois often have dedicated veteran sections — those plots can be listed and sold on PlotListings like any other private plot.
