Dear 1st time homebuyer,

If you have a Realtor® that is representing you as your buyer's agent, they will be able to assist with that answer.

My name is Wendy Valko and I am known as "Your Caring Local Realto®" .  You can learn more about me by visiting my website at: www.LiveInMI.com .

You can also go to the township and inquire.  One time per year is anyone allowed to protest the property taxes.  I always tell my clients to think of the Love.  Valentines Day!  That is when you can schedule an appointment to go infront of the board and appeal.  Be well prepared and have backup to state your case.

Cordially,
Wendy Valko
