Guidance regarding Form 1019, Notice of Assessment, Taxable Valuation, and Property Classification Not less than 14 days before the first meeting of the Board of Review, the assessment notice shall be mailed to the property owner. Property taxes are calculated based on the Taxable Value (Line 1). State Equalized Value is the Assessed Value multiplied by the Equalization Factor, if any. State Equalized Value must approximate 50% of market value. The Taxable Value number entered in the “Change from Prior Year to Current Year” Column, does not indicate a change in your taxes. The change in your tax bill is estimated above Line 1. State Equalized Value is the Assessed Value multiplied by the Equalization Factor, if any. State Equalized Value must approximate 50% of market value. IF THERE WAS A TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP on your property in 2025, your 2026 Taxable Value will be the same as your 2026 State Equalized Value. IF THERE WAS NOT A TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP on your property in 2025, your 2026 Taxable Value is calculated by multiplying your 2025 Taxable Value by 1.027 (Inflation Rate Multiplier for the current year). Physical changes in your property may also increase or decrease your Taxable Value. Your 2026 Taxable Value cannot be higher than your 2026 State Equalized Value. The Taxable Value, the Assessed Value, the State Equalized Value, the Property Classification, or the Transfer of Ownership may be appealed by filing a protest with the Local Board of Review. Protests are made to the Board of Review by completing a Board of Review Petition Form. A Petition Form may be obtained directly from the local unit or from the Michigan Department of Treasury’s website at www.michigan.govi/taxes.
