Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $4,714 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $4,714 to $6,997 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 37.96 mills for Royal Oak City and Royal Oak 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.
