How it compares in Grosse Pointe

Over the last 90 days, 53 homes sold in Grosse Pointe for a median of $480,000, about $194 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 6 days. This home is listed at $127,499, or $161 per square foot, 17% below the city median, and has been on the market 32 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Grosse Pointe sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $3,050 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $1,022 to $4,133 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 64.18 mills for Detroit City and Detroit 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.
