The facts

Property taxes: the seller's bill vs. yours

Michigan caps a homeowner's taxable value until the home sells, then it resets. That's about $4,891 a year more than this seller pays. The assessor's state equalized value (SEV) is $125,670. Your taxable value resets to the SEV the year after you buy, and assessors usually raise it to about half the sale price. Estimate uses Waterford Township's 2025 homestead rate of 34.36 mills and assumes you claim the homestead exemption. See Waterford Township's full tax breakdown or run the uncapping calculator.
