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 Saint Clair 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 Saint Clair 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
The taxable value is used to calculate the property taxes. The taxable value represents the value capped at the rate of inflation or 5%, whichever is less. Because true cash values rise faster than the rate of inflation, taxable values will be less than the SEV. However, if a property is transferred, the following year's SEV becomes the property's taxable value.
We have no information whether any exemptions currently apply to this property, therefore the taxable value will be equal to the assessed value.
Property Tax
Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value by the corresponding millage rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from any exemptions would pay. The rates are expressed as millages (i.e the actual rates multiplied by 1000).
Actual taxes might differ from the figures displayed here due to various exemptions, abatement and financial assistance programs. For more information please visit Saint Clair County's Equalization Department, Treasurer or look up this property's current valuation.
