How it compares in Grosse Pointe Woods

Over the last 90 days, 48 homes sold in Grosse Pointe Woods for a median of $412,500, about $190 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 3 days. This home is listed at $499,000, or $187 per square foot, about the same as the city median, and has been on the market 63 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Grosse Pointe Woods sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $9,810 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $9,617 to $13,920 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 55.24 mills for Grosse Pointe Woods City and Grosse Pointe 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.
