Unless Respondent was defaulted, this case is ready to be scheduled for a Small 

Claims hearing and will be scheduled in the normal course of scheduling. You will 

receive a Notice of Hearing from the Tribunal by e-mail if you have identified an email 

address in the petition or other documentation. The Notice of Hearing will inform you of

had been submitted to the local Board of Review or the Michigan Department of 

Treasury. If the documents are not timely submitted to the Tribunal and served on the

Alternate Dispute Resolution Options

INFORMAL SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE: Parties have the option of handling this 

case through an informal settlement conference. An informal settlement conference 

is a meeting between the parties and/or their representatives to discuss the issues in a 

case in an effort to settle the case. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with 

a judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent 

Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information.

NOTE: The parties may not request an informal settlement conference to discuss an 

appeal of a principal residence exemption that was denied by either the Michigan 

Department of Treasury or a County. Also, state taxes levied by the Michigan 

Department of Treasury, such as income taxes, are not subject to the informal 

settlement conference process.

mutually acceptable settlement. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with a 

judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent 

Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information.

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal 

[Assessment Appeal 

~ 9111 Tippedy Dr., St. Helen, MI 

The assessed value of 9411 Tippedy Dr has increased from $205,900 in 2019 fo $482,200 in 2026, representing a 134% increase over six years. Marked (outpaced) increases 

of $70,800 or +29% assessed value in 2023, 24% above that year's 1.05 inflation multiplier, and $63,800 or +20% assessed value in 2024, 15% above the year's 1.05 inflation 

multiplier. 

While property values in the area have risen, the increase applied to this property significantly exceeds the growth of comparable homes on Tippedy Drive. Nearby properties 

experienced increases generally ranging from 43% to 81% over comparable periods, substantially lower than the nearly 134% increase applied to this property. 

Examples of comparable properties over the same timeline include: 

- 9131 Tippedy Dr: +45.6% increase 

- 9171 Tippedy Dr: +59.3% increase 

-9191 Tippedy Dr: +51.6% increase 

- 9219 Tippedy Dr: +43.0% increase 

These homes are similarly situated lakefront properties in the same immediate neighborhood. No major structural additions, renovations, or material improvements have been 

made to 9111 Tippedy Dr (since 2017) that would juslify an assessment increase substantially greater than the surrounding properties. Because the assessment growth for this 

property materially outpaces the neighborhood trend, the current assessed value does not reflect uniform and equitable assessment practices. 

We purchased the home in October 2024 at $602,000 and it subsequently uncapped in 2025. The resulting uncapping was significantly higher than the purchase price as a 

aresult of the previous assessed value increases. Had the property followed market set inflation multipliers the uncapping would have set very near the purchase price. 

Requested Adjustment 

To align this property with the prevailing neighborhood growth pattern, a revised assessed value in the range of $316,000 ~ $320,000 would more accurately reflect the 

proportional increases (approx. 50% + 2.7% annual increase in 2026) applied to comparable properties on Tippedy Drive. This adjustment would maintain consistency with 

surrounding assessments while still recognizing the general appreciation of lakefront properties in the area,

[Assessment Appeal 

~ 9111 Tippedy Dr., St. Helen, MI 

The assessed value of 9411 Tippedy Dr has increased from $205,900 in 2019 fo $482,200 in 2026, representing a 134% increase over six years. Marked (outpaced) increases 

of $70,800 or +29% assessed value in 2023, 24% above that year's 1.05 inflation multiplier, and $63,800 or +20% assessed value in 2024, 15% above the year's 1.05 inflation 

multiplier. 

While property values in the area have risen, the increase applied to this property significantly exceeds the growth of comparable homes on Tippedy Drive. Nearby properties 

experienced increases generally ranging from 43% to 81% over comparable periods, substantially lower than the nearly 134% increase applied to this property. 

Examples of comparable properties over the same timeline include: 

- 9131 Tippedy Dr: +45.6% increase 

- 9171 Tippedy Dr: +59.3% increase 

-9191 Tippedy Dr: +51.6% increase 

- 9219 Tippedy Dr: +43.0% increase 

These homes are similarly situated lakefront properties in the same immediate neighborhood. No major structural additions, renovations, or material improvements have been 

made to 9111 Tippedy Dr (since 2017) that would juslify an assessment increase substantially greater than the surrounding properties. Because the assessment growth for this 

property materially outpaces the neighborhood trend, the current assessed value does not reflect uniform and equitable assessment practices. 

We purchased the home in October 2024 at $602,000 and it subsequently uncapped in 2025. The resulting uncapping was significantly higher than the purchase price as a 

aresult of the previous assessed value increases. Had the property followed market set inflation multipliers the uncapping would have set very near the purchase price. 

Requested Adjustment 

To align this property with the prevailing neighborhood growth pattern, a revised assessed value in the range of $316,000 ~ $320,000 would more accurately reflect the 

proportional increases (approx. 50% + 2.7% annual increase in 2026) applied to comparable properties on Tippedy Drive. This adjustment would maintain consistency with 

surrounding assessments while still recognizing the general appreciation of lakefront properties in the area,
