Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $3,742 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $2,348 to $5,095 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 36.04 mills for Troy City and Troy 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.
