A lien is a legal claim that can affect a property or the money due at closing. The creditor or tax office provides the current payoff amount and instructions; the title company checks ownership and recorded claims for the sale. Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate from closing costs and are shown in the closing figures that apply to the sale.

For an ordinary taxable sale, Michigan’s state real estate transfer tax is $3.75 for each $500 of the property’s value at sale, or part of $500. The county tax is generally another 55 cents for each $500, or part of $500. State and county exemptions are separate, so the county, sale value, and any exemption need to be checked for the actual sale. State law generally makes the seller responsible.
