How it compares in Monroe
Over the last 90 days, 170 homes sold in Monroe for a median of $225,000, about $149 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 10 days. This home is listed at $475,000, or $186 per square foot, 25% above the city median, and has been on the market 44 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Monroe sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $7,248 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $7,495 to $10,478 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 43.68 mills for Monroe City and Monroe 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.
