Imagine finally buying your dream home in Detroit, only to be hit with a property tax bill bigger than your down payment. That’s what happened to a Midtown couple, who opened their first full tax bill and found nearly $20,000 due—thanks to Michigan’s “uncapping” rule, which resets taxable value after a sale. Detroit’s property tax rates are already the highest among major U.S. cities, and many buyers don’t realize how much their bills can jump. This isn’t just one family’s problem—it’s a citywide issue. How do you think Detroit should tackle this? Should buyers get more warning, or is it time to rethink the system? #RealEstate #Detroit #Homeownership
