I am thinking about purchasing a home in Redford Township, how can I estimate the amount of property tax I will be paying?

Contact the Assessing Department at 313-387-2729 for an estimate of the new taxes. In an appreciating market, the value goes through an uncapping process the year following a transfer. For more information regarding the uncapping process, view this brochure with details.

However, you can take half of the Assessor’s property value and multiply it by the applicable current year millage rate for a rough estimate. (($200,000 market value x 50% = 100,000 times the most recent Summer and Winter PRE millages combined, .062259 (62.259 Mills) = $6,225.90)). If the current millage rates are not available, prior years will be used as an estimator. This estimate does not include 1% administration fee or special assessments.

*Please note this example is for South Redford School District, and utilized 2021 PRE Millage Rates.
