STATE OF MICHIGAN GRETCHEN WHITMER GOVERNOR DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS LANSING MARLON I. BROWN, DPA DIRECTOR 2 of 3 The assessed value of the subject property is not consistent with the assessment levels of similar properties in the immediate area. The subject is inferior in key respects, including the absence of a garage, a shared and deteriorated driveway, a partial unfinished basement, and a dated interior. It is also impacted by external obsolescence due to its location directly behind a bar and adjacent to commercial uses. Comparable properties demonstrate that homes with similar or superior characteristics are assessed at lower State Equalized Values. The property at 190 Euclid Avenue is similar in size but superior in condition, driveway utility, and location, yet is assessed at approximately $58,300. The property at 291 North Rose Street is larger and has superior functionality, yet carries a lower SEV of approximately $51,600. Additionally, 184 Euclid Street is clearly superior in condition and amenities, yet is assessed at a level comparable to the subject. These comparisons indicate that the subject is currently assessed above where it should be positioned relative to similar properties. A State Equalized Value of approximately $52,000 more accurately reflects the subject’s inferior condition, location, and overall market position. The petitioner respectfully requests a reduction in both the True Cash Value and corresponding Taxable Value to reflect a SEV of $52,000. Jurisdictional Issues: Did you protest the assessment at a Board of Review? Yes If Yes, check which Board of Review you attended: March If No, please check the applicable reason(s): Year(s) Under Appeal: 2026 Valuation Information for Each Parcel under Appeal: Parcel Number: 051114279004 Classification of Property: Personal (check one) Residential (check one) Current Assessed Value as established by the Board of Review: 70200 Current Taxable Value as established by the Board of Review: 65859 What do you believe is the fair market value? 104000
