How it compares in Ferndale

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $6,314 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $4,792 to $8,571 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 47.16 mills for Ferndale City and Ferndale 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.
