Section 4: Check which of the following you are appealing (check afl that apply) 

True Cash and Taxable Value 

[1 Taxable Value Only (calculation) 

J Uncapping of Taxable Value 

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal 

The assessed value exceeds the true cash value of the property. 

The current State Equalized Value of $430,100 implies a market value of approximately 

$860,200, which is not supported by recent comparable sales. 

The property was purchased in 2022 for $645,000 in an arms-length transaction, and no 

major improvements have been made since that time. 

Recent sales of similar homes in the neighborhood indicate values significantly lower 

than the current assessment. 

Based on comparable sales and market data, the current assessment appears to 

exceed fair market value. 

Section 6: Jurisdictional Issues 

Did you protest the assessment at a Board of Review (BOR)? 

Yes 

[WH] No 

If Yes, check which BOR you attended: 

March

[mn] December 

If No, please check the applicable reason(s):

[m} No 

If you answered yes to the above question, you are not required to pay any filing fees. 

If the property does not have a Principat Residence Exemption of at least 50% as of the date of the filing of this petition for all tax years at 

issue, the filing fee is based on the greater of the State Equalized Value or Taxable Value in dispute. 

if you are appealing more than one

will be added for each additional parcel being appealed, not to exceed a total filing fee of $1,000.00 

if your property is residential property (ses MCL 205.762) and 

the State Equalized Value or Taxable Value in contention is: 

Filing Fee is: 

$100,000.00 and under 

$126.00 

$100,000.01 to $500,000.00 

$200.00 

$Over $500,000.00 

$300.00 

If the property is 

NOT residential property (see MCL 206.762) and 

the State Equalized Value or Taxable Value in contention is: 

filing Fee is: 

$100,000.00 and under

* Plus $26.00 for each additional parcel, as indicated above.
