Questions
How much are property taxes in Mt. Clemens, MI?
On a $300,000 home the year after a sale, about $7,368 to $7,938 a year as a principal residence, and $9,981 to $10,545 as a second home or rental, at the 2025 rates (the range is the school districts). A sale resets the taxable value to about half of market value, so the seller's taxes can be lower.
What is the property tax rate in Mt. Clemens?
49.12 to 52.92 mills on a principal residence and 66.54 to 70.30 mills on other homes in 2025, from Michigan Treasury's total rates. A mill is $1 for each $1,000 of taxable value; with the taxable value at half the price, that is about 2.46% to 2.65% of the price a year on a home you live in.
Why can my taxes be higher than the seller's?
Michigan caps how fast a home's taxable value rises while one owner has it. A sale lifts the cap, and the year after you buy the taxable value resets to the state equalized value, about half of market value (MCL 211.27a).
