Useful offices

Start with the record you need

An assessed value, an unpaid tax balance, a recorded deed, and a court judgment are different records. Match the office to the question, and use the exact property address when you call.

Antrim County Equalization: Township Assessing

Antrim County and its local assessing units

Use the County’s township-assessing information to find the right starting point for an assessed-value question. The Village of Bellaire lies in portions of Forest Home and Kearney Townships, so confirm which local assessing unit covers the property. An assessed value is not a current tax balance, deed record, or court judgment.

Village of Bellaire Clerk and Treasurer

Village of Bellaire

The Village lists its Clerk as Zoning Administrator and its Treasurer for Village property-tax billing and collection. Call about Village zoning, records, or a current-year Village tax bill; for a property outside the Village, contact that property’s municipality about current-year taxes.

Phone: 231-533-8213

Antrim County Probate Court and Family Division

Antrim County probate filings and court contact

Use the court’s page for probate filing and local court-contact information. The court is in the historic courthouse in downtown Bellaire. Its general contact page does not determine which court handles a particular estate or who may sign a deed.

Phone: 231-533-6681

Antrim County Construction Code Department

Antrim County construction-code permit records

The County Building Inspector page is the local starting point for construction-code permit and record questions. It does not answer Village zoning questions; those go to the local unit that administers zoning.

Phone: 231-533-8373

Helpful local rules

Michigan transfer taxes and local property questions

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan’s state real-estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of the property’s value at the time of sale, or part of $500. County tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. At the 55-cent county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, or $860 total. The seller is generally responsible under state law. State and county exemptions are separate, so ask the title company to confirm the county rate, taxable value, and any exemption for your property.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Current-year bills and delinquent taxes use different offices

Antrim County directs current-year property-tax questions to the local municipality and prior-year or delinquent-tax questions to the County Treasurer. If a foreclosure notice is involved, check the County’s timeline and publication pages, then confirm the status and next date for the exact property with the County.

Questions about Bellaire and Antrim County seller resources

Which office handles an assessed-value question?

Start with Antrim County’s Township Assessing information to identify the local assessing unit for the parcel. Assessment records are different from an unpaid tax balance, a recorded deed, or a court judgment.

Who should I call about current or overdue property taxes?

Current-year tax questions go to the property’s local municipality. For a Village of Bellaire bill, call the Village Treasurer at 231-533-8213. Antrim County’s Treasurer handles prior-year and delinquent property-tax information; call 231-533-6720.

Where can I look up a recorded deed?

Use the Antrim County Register of Deeds public-search information for recorded property documents. A deed record does not tell you the assessed value or current tax balance.

Where do I check a court judgment connected to a house?

Use the issuing court and case information shown on the judgment or notice to ask about the court record. The Register of Deeds handles recorded real-property documents; it does not interpret what a court order means for your property.

How much are Michigan real-estate transfer taxes?

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan’s state tax is $3.75 for each $500 of value or part of $500. County tax is generally another 55 cents per $500. At that county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax. State and county exemptions differ, so ask the title company to confirm the rate, taxable value, and exemptions for your sale.

Who handles zoning and building-permit questions in Bellaire?

Antrim County says zoning is handled by local units, not through a county-wide zoning ordinance. The Village lists its Clerk as Zoning Administrator; the County Building Inspector page is the starting point for county construction-code permit records.
