How it compares in Howell
Over the last 90 days, 259 homes sold in Howell for a median of $386,950, about $184 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 11 days. This home is listed at $430,000, or $136 per square foot, 26% below the city median, and has been on the market 30 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Howell sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $3,584 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $3,608 to $5,102 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 23.49 mills for Oceola Twp and Howell 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.
