How it compares in White Lake

Over the last 90 days, 94 homes sold in White Lake for a median of $415,500, about $189 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 16 days.

Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent White Lake sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $2,750 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $2,466 to $6,379 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 31.59 mills for White Lake Twp and Walled Lake 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.
