Michigan Tax Tribunal 

P.O. Box 30232 

Lansing, MI 48909 

Subject: Appeal of Assessed and Taxable Value — Parcel ID: 21014718 

Dear Michigan Tax Tribunal, 

I am submitting this appeal to contest the uncapping of taxable value and the current 

assessed value of the property identified by Parcel ID 21014718, which I purchased through 

the city's Land Bank. 

This is the first time I have received a property tax notice for this parcel since acquiring it, 

and [ was surprised to see the taxable value set at $2,400. | respectfully believe this value 

does not accurately reflect the true condition of the property or the neighborhood. 

The property is located in a significantly distressed area with high vacancy, deteriorating 

infrastructure, and overall low market demand. Based on current neighborhood conditions 

and comparable vacant or blighted properties, I believe the fair market value of the property 

is no more than $500. Accordingly, the assessed value should be $250, and the taxable value 

should reflect the same. 

Additionally, I did not have the opportunity to present this appeal before the local Board of 

Review because I did not receive a prior notice of change or uncapping until now. 

[ am requesting that the Michigan Tax Tribunal review this case and adjust the assessed and
