Shazia Manzar, 

Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL

 SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION

v 

 MTT Docket No. 25-002931

City of Detroit,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in the above-captioned case and finds that:

Petitioner protested the assessment to Respondent’s March Board of Review, as 

required by MCL 205.735a. However, because the BOR did not issue a final decision in 

writing, the Tribunal lacks authority to consider Petitioner’s appeal under MCL 211.30 

and MCL 205.731. Petitioner’s contention that the Tribunal should take jurisdiction over 

this appeal without a final decision is an argument in equity. The Tribunal has no 

equitable power to waive or otherwise disregard statutory filing requirements and 

deadlines, and it therefore has no authority to hear the appeal or grant the relief 

requested. See Sixarp, LLC v Byron Twp, __Mich__; __NW3d__ (2025). 

Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED.

This order resolves all pending issues and closes the case.

APPEAL RIGHTS

If you disagree with the final decision in this case, you may file a motion for 

reconsideration with the Tribunal or a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of 

Appeals. 

A motion for reconsideration must be filed with the Tribunal with the required filing fee 

within 21 days from the date of entry of the final decision. Because the final decision 

closes the case, the motion cannot be filed through the Tribunal’s web-based e-filing 

system; it must be filed by mail or personal service. The fee for the filing of such 

motions is $50.00 in the Entire Tribunal and $25.00 in the Small Claims Division, unless 

the Small Claims decision relates to the valuation of property and the property had a 

principal residence exemption of at least 50% at the time the petition was filed or the 

decision relates to the grant or denial of a poverty or disabled veterans exemption and, 

if so, there is no filing fee. You are required to serve a copy of the motion on the 

opposing party by mail or personal service or by email if the opposing party agrees to

electronic service, and proof demonstrating that service must be submitted with the 

motion. Responses to motions for reconsideration are prohibited and there are no oral 

arguments unless otherwise ordered by the Tribunal.

Alternatively, you may file a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of Appeals. If the 

claim is filed within 21 days of the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal of right.” If 

the claim is filed more than 21 days after the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal 

by leave.” A copy of the claim of appeal must be filed with the Tribunal to certify the 

record on appeal. There is no certification fee.

Section 4: Issues Being Appealed (check all that apply)

True Cash and Taxable Value, Uncapping of Taxable Value

 

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal

I am appealing the Assessed Value (AV) of my property at 10860 Duprey St, Detroit, MI 48224, as the current assessment does not accurately reflect its fair market 

value.

The Assessor review lowered the Assessed Value to $25,300, however that is still high. I submitted my appeal for the Board of Review (BOR) and was denied. I 

did not receive final decision letter from The Board of Review (BOR), however this is reflected on the property BS&A record online. I believe my Assessed Value 

should be $19,000. Therefore, I am appealing to Michigan Tax Tribunal based on the factors noted below. 

Grounds for Appeal:

1. Recent Purchase Price Confirms Overassessment

•

I purchased this property on January 3, 2024, for $38,000, a transaction that has been duly recorded by the city.

•

The 2025 State Equalized Value (SEV) is now adjusted to $25,300, which implies a market value of $50,600 (since SEV represents 50% of market 

value).

•

This implied market value is significantly higher than the actual price I paid.

2. Comparable Sales Support a Lower SEV & AV

•

Recent comparable sales in the area indicate that similar properties have sold for amounts much closer to my purchase price:

o

10728 Duprey St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on March 5, 2024 for $36,000.

o

12897 Riad St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on June 21, 22024 for $36000

o

10711 Marne St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on January 3, 2025 for $35000

•

These sales strongly suggest that the true market value for properties in this area is much closer to $38,000 rather than the $50,600 implied by the 

current SEV.

3. Requested Adjustment

•

Based on my purchase price and the comparable sales, the correct market value for this property should be closer to $38,000.

•

Since SEV represents 50% of market value, the appropriate SEV should be approximately $19,000 rather than $25,300.

•

Because the Assessed Value (AV) matches the SEV, I respectfully request that my Assessed Value be adjusted to approximately $19,000 to accurately 

reflect the true property value.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this appeal. Please let me know if any additional information is required.

Sincerely,

Syed Khalid Manzar

Section 4: Issues Being Appealed (check all that apply)

True Cash and Taxable Value, Uncapping of Taxable Value

 

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal

I am appealing the Assessed Value (AV) of my property at 10860 Duprey St, Detroit, MI 48224, as the current assessment does not accurately reflect its fair market 

value.

The Assessor review lowered the Assessed Value to $25,300, however that is still high. I submitted my appeal for the Board of Review (BOR) and was denied. I 

did not receive final decision letter from The Board of Review (BOR), however this is reflected on the property BS&A record online. I believe my Assessed Value 

should be $19,000. Therefore, I am appealing to Michigan Tax Tribunal based on the factors noted below. 

Grounds for Appeal:

1. Recent Purchase Price Confirms Overassessment

•

I purchased this property on January 3, 2024, for $38,000, a transaction that has been duly recorded by the city.

•

The 2025 State Equalized Value (SEV) is now adjusted to $25,300, which implies a market value of $50,600 (since SEV represents 50% of market 

value).

•

This implied market value is significantly higher than the actual price I paid.

2. Comparable Sales Support a Lower SEV & AV

•

Recent comparable sales in the area indicate that similar properties have sold for amounts much closer to my purchase price:

o

10728 Duprey St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on March 5, 2024 for $36,000.

o

12897 Riad St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on June 21, 22024 for $36000

o

10711 Marne St, Detroit, MI 48224 – Sold on January 3, 2025 for $35000

•

These sales strongly suggest that the true market value for properties in this area is much closer to $38,000 rather than the $50,600 implied by the 

current SEV.

3. Requested Adjustment

•

Based on my purchase price and the comparable sales, the correct market value for this property should be closer to $38,000.

•

Since SEV represents 50% of market value, the appropriate SEV should be approximately $19,000 rather than $25,300.

•

Because the Assessed Value (AV) matches the SEV, I respectfully request that my Assessed Value be adjusted to approximately $19,000 to accurately 

reflect the true property value.

Thank you for your time and consideration of this appeal. Please let me know if any additional information is required.

Sincerely,

Syed Khalid Manzar
