    This is the problem with real estate in the city and the state. Tax rates and reality are at two different levels.
    They base tax rates on older properties over taxed in the first place instead of taxing properties on the sale value. That is why there should be a law that tax rates should be based on sale values, NOT on a ten year old house or whatever that sold twenty years ago. This is the big tax scam in Michigan. IN ESSENCE THE SALE PRICE SHOULD BE THE TAX BASIS.
    THIS IS THE PROBLEM!

    Taxes are a huge issue in this city. Mine are $4700. A super nice house down the street from me is selling/going for under $10,000. Something wrong with this picture.

    I guess I grew up when I bought my house.Seeing what I have seen in the 4 years I have owned my house, I know that taxes go up down and wherever the assesor thinks they should be at. Seeing the house 4 doors down from me sell for $19 grand when I owe $129,000 makes me sick.I couldn't deal with paying $4700 in taxes here in Wayne let alone in Detroit.
