How it compares in Birmingham
Over the last 90 days, 102 homes sold in Birmingham for a median of $907,000, about $331 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 18 days. This home is listed at $425,900, or $303 per square foot, 8% below the city median, and has been on the market 26 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Birmingham sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $5,400 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $6,001 to $8,204 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 38.14 mills for Birmingham City and Birmingham schools, plus the 1% administration fee. Michigan resets a home's taxable value the year after it sells, so the seller's bill isn't a good number to budget with. See the math.
