How it compares in Gaines
Over the last 90 days, 19 homes sold in Gaines for a median of $365,000, about $174 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 10 days. This home is listed at $189,900, or $180 per square foot, 3% above the city median, and has been on the market 72 days. Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Gaines sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $2,186 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $3,135 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 32.69 mills for Gaines Twp and Swartz Creek 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.
