Frequently Asked Questions
Michigan property tax is calculated by multiplying the taxable value (property value minus exemptions) by the millage rate and dividing by 1,000.
A millage rate is the tax per $1,000 of taxable value. For example, a rate of 50 mills means $50 per $1,000 of taxable value.
The PRE exempts up to $36,000 of taxable value from local school operating taxes for owner-occupied primary residences.
