How it compares in River Rouge

Over the last 90 days, 11 homes sold in River Rouge for a median of $100,000, about $73 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 62 days. This home is listed at $134,900, or $71 per square foot, 3% below the city median, and has been on the market 171 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent River Rouge sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $2,707 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $2,304 to $5,565 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 81.69 mills for River Rouge City and River Rouge 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.

Estimate only, 30 year fixed, includes taxes at a new owner's rate when listed. Ask us for a lender quote.
