How it compares in Romulus

Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Romulus sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $5,872 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $5,679 to $12,786 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 50.69 mills for Romulus City and Romulus 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.
