•• PROTECTED 関係者外秘 1. Cover Letter Dear Officer: My name is Yuyang Song. I am the owner of the home at 592 concord pines dr, Ann Arbor, Mi, 48105. I bought the house in 2024 per a pressure sale from a real agent for the new construction house in Ann Arbor. Since it is a new house, it was not much clear for me for the house is so close to highway 23, actually less than 300ft as shown in Fig.1 and Fig.2. NO BODY TOLD ME THIS INFOR WHEN THEY SELL THE HOUSE TO ME. Fig1. Distance measurement
Page 3
•• PROTECTED 関係者外秘 Fig.2 Highway behind the house The property has been assessed at a State Equalized Value (SEV) of $481,900, implying a true cash value of $963,800, which exceeds the property's actual market value as of tax day. A recent comparable sale within the same subdivision, 580 Concord Pines Dr, sold for $998,762. However, that comparable property is superior to the subject property in several significant respects. The subject property has an unfinished basement as Fig.3 shows, lacks premium lot characteristics, has fewer builder upgrades, and is adversely affected by highway proximity, all of which reduce its market value relative to the comparable sale. I respectfully request review of the assessment of my residential property located at 592 Concord Pines Dr, Ann Arbor, Michigan. The current SEV is $481,900. Based on comparable sales and market adjustments for highway proximity, unfinished basement, non-premium lot characteristics, and fewer builder upgrades, I request a reduction of SEV to $450,000. 2. Reasons for Appeal The assessment exceeds the property's actual market value. A comparable sale at 580 Concord Pines Dr sold for approximately $998,762. However, that property is superior due to basement finish, lot characteristics, upgrades, and location. 3. Comparable Sales Adjustment Grid Item Adjustment Amount Sale Price - 580 Concord Pines Dr $998,762 Unfinished Basement - $30,000 No Premium Lot - $20,000 Fewer Builder Upgrades - $25,000 Highway Proximity - $20,000 Adjusted Market Value $903,762 Indicated SEV $451,881

•• PROTECTED 関係者外秘 Steps away from highway Exhibit E – Noise Measurement Evidence This is the noise measurement results for my house, the recorded time is Friday afternoon, not peak traffic time. Such noise makes our backyard basically a junk yard, we can not have any social event in backyard. Because of such noise level, we never have any party in our house. Another huge factor of from this noise level is the reselling value of the house, we were trying to sell this house in last two years, but we can not get any offer. Per conversation from the selling agent, they told me that there is no offer for this house at all. Most of the potential buyer just did not want to step in the house, even there is open house event. Some of them parked their car outside the curb and notice this noise, then turned around home. This is a huge issue for us…

MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL APPEAL PACKAGE Property: 592 Concord Pines Dr, Ann Arbor, MI 48105 Petitioner: Yuyang Song Requested SEV: $450,000
Page 2
1. Cover Letter Dear Officer: My name is Yuyang Song. I am the owner of the home at 592 concord pines dr, Ann Arbor, Mi, 48105. I bought the house in 2024 per a pressure sale from a real agent for the new construction house in Ann Arbor. Since it is a new house, it was not much clear for me for the house is so close to highway 23, actually less than 300ft as shown in Fig.1 and Fig.2. NO BODY TOLD ME THIS INFOR WHEN THEY SELL THE HOUSE TO ME. Fig1. Distance measurement

Fig.2 Highway behind the house The property has been assessed at a State Equalized Value (SEV) of $481,900, implying a true cash value of $963,800, which exceeds the property's actual market value as of tax day. A recent comparable sale within the same subdivision, 580 Concord Pines Dr, sold for $998,762. However, that comparable property is superior to the subject property in several significant respects. The subject property has an unfinished basement as Fig.3 shows, lacks premium lot characteristics, has fewer builder upgrades, and is adversely affected by highway proximity, all of which reduce its market value relative to the comparable sale. I respectfully request review of the assessment of my residential property located at 592 Concord Pines Dr, Ann Arbor, Michigan. The current SEV is $481,900. Based on comparable sales and market adjustments for highway proximity, unfinished basement, non-premium lot characteristics, and fewer builder upgrades, I request a reduction of SEV to $450,000. 2. Reasons for Appeal The assessment exceeds the property's actual market value. A comparable sale at 580 Concord Pines Dr sold for approximately $998,762. However, that property is superior due to basement finish, lot characteristics, upgrades, and location. 3. Comparable Sales Adjustment Grid Item Adjustment Amount Sale Price - 580 Concord Pines Dr $998,762 Unfinished Basement - $30,000 No Premium Lot - $20,000 Fewer Builder Upgrades - $25,000 Highway Proximity - $20,000 Adjusted Market Value $903,762 Indicated SEV $451,881

Steps away from highway Exhibit E – Noise Measurement Evidence This is the noise measurement results for my house, the recorded time is Friday afternoon, not peak traffic time. Such noise makes our backyard basically a junk yard, we can not have any social event in backyard. Because of such noise level, we never have any party in our house. Another huge factor of from this noise level is the reselling value of the house, we were trying to sell this house in last two years, but we can not get any offer. Per conversation from the selling agent, they told me that there is no offer for this house at all. Most of the potential buyer just did not want to step in the house, even there is open house event. Some of them parked their car outside the curb and notice this noise, then turned around home. This is a huge issue for us…
