Property Tax Calculation
Proposal A (1994), the main legal document regarding property taxation in the State of Michigan, mandates that tax calculation is based on two main factors: Taxable Value (TV) and State Equalized Value (SEV).
Market Value
The Livingston County Equalization Department establishes the true cash value also known as market value, for all taxable real property in the county. Market value has been defined by The Supreme Court as the sale price of real estate as agreed upon between a willing buyer and willing seller, with neither being under duress to buy or sell.
Assessed Value
The State Equalized Value, also known as assessed value is determined by the local assessor, based on the property's condition on December 31 of the previous year and is calculated using an assessment ratio set by the State Legislature. Currently, the assessment ratio applicable for real estate property in Livingston County is 50%.
State Equalized Value
The State Equalized Value(SEV) is determined by applying an adjustment factor to the assessed value by the State Tax Commission. This is done for bringing the total valuation across counties closer to the 50% level.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Property tax exemptions and deferment programs are available in The State of Michigan, which may lower the property's tax bill. These are deducted from the assessed value to give the property's taxable value. The taxable value may not increase by more than 5% or by more than the rate of inflation, whichever is lower (excluding new construction).
Property Tax
Base tax is calculated by multiplying the property's assessed value with the corresponding millage rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from exemptions would pay.
Current tax represents the amount the present owner pays including exemptions.
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various abatement and financial assistance programs. For more information please visit Livingston County's Equalization Department, Treasurer or look up this property's current valuation.
