Board of Review-Saginaw Township 

4980 Shattuck Road 

Saginaw MI 48603 

Dear Board of Review Members, 

In support of my claim, I have provided comparisons of newly constructed multi-unit properties 

in the region, including their values per square foot. Specifically, I have focused on properties 

that were built in recent years to present an accurate reflection of current market trends. 

The construction difference in our unit compared to the comparable units is significant. Our unit 

is pole barn framed on a slab. The construction value is less than the other comparable units 

which were foundation built with frame construction. 

Here is what I believe should be assessed to our property. Utilizing the lowest square foot value 

of 

th 

i 

this to my duplex, which has a total of 2,415 square feet, the value would be $35.36 x 2,415 = 

$85,394. When considering this the assessed and taxable value of the property would be $85,394 

this would make the entire property at a market value of $170,788.00. 

I respectfully request that the Board reconsider the assessed and taxable value of my property, 

taking into account the comparisons and analysis provided. I believe this revised valuation more 

accurately reflects the current market conditions for similar new construction duplexes in 

Saginaw County. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. 

Sincerely, 

Ch Fn.

Board of Review-Saginaw Township

Saginaw MI 48603 

Dear Board of Review Members, 

I constructed in 2022, located at 1544 Bryn Mawr, Saginaw MI 48603, Parcel ID; 23-12-4-19- 

1027-005. After reviewing the assessed and taxable value and comparing it to similar properties 

in the area, I believe that the proposed assessment is significantly overvalued. 

In support of my claim, I have provided comparisons of newly constructed multi-unit properties 

in the region, including their values per square foot. Specifically, I have focused on properties 

that were built in recent years to present an accurate reflection of current market trends. 

The construction difference in our unit compared to the comparable units is significant. Our unit 

is pole barn framed on a slab. The construction value is less than the other comparable units 

which were foundation built with frame construction. 

Here is what I believe should be assessed to our property. Utilizing the lowest square foot value 

of the comparable new multi-family properties, which comes to $35.36 per square foot. Applying 

this to my duplex, which has a total of 2,415 square feet, the value would be $35.36 x 2,415 = 

$85,394. When considering this the assessed and taxable value of the property would be $85,394 

this would make the entire Property at a market value of $170,788.00. 

I respectfully request that the Board reconsider the assessed and taxable value of my property, 

taking into account the comparisons and analysis provided. I believe this revised valuation more 

accurately reflects the current market conditions for similar new construction duplexes in 

Saginaw County. 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
