How much are property taxes on a $350,000 home in Ann Arbor Township?
About $6,660 a year at the homestead rate. Michigan taxes the taxable value, not the sale price, and after a sale that value uncaps to roughly half what you paid — so $350,000 is taxed on about $175,000.
Why is the tax bill on a Ann Arbor Township listing lower than what I would pay?
Because the figure on the listing is the seller's. Michigan caps annual taxable-value growth while an owner keeps the property, and that cap is removed the year after it sells. The longer the seller owned it, the further their bill sits below yours.
How does Ann Arbor Township compare with the rest of Washtenaw County?
It is the 18 lowest of 27 municipalities in Washtenaw County and 150 of 236 across the eight-county region — 3.43 mills above the county median.
