Helpful Michigan rule
Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes
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. The county tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part. At that county rate, a $100,000 sale has $750 in state tax and $110 in county tax, $860 total. The seller is generally responsible under state law. State and county exemptions are separate, so check the property's county, sale value, and any exemption for the actual transaction.
Ask the title or closing professional to show the tax and any exemption for the actual sale. When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Michigan state and county real estate transfer taxes. That does not include a mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, or your share of current property taxes; those remain separate.
