Paradigm Tax Group is ready to assist commercial, multi-residential, industrial, and special purpose taxpayers with their Michigan property tax matters. From our local Metro Detroit office, we provide quality service to the 83 counties across Michigan. It is important to manage your property tax accounts to ensure that you are paying the lowest legal amount of tax. Our goal is to represent you with a professional, local, reputable team, leveraging the appropriate valuation methodology to help you control and lower both your real and personal property taxes.
Since the implementation of Proposal A, Michigan property taxes are calculated on Taxable Value, also known as Capped Value. The difference between Taxable and State Equalized Values tend to vary greatly. Annual increases to the Taxable Value are limited, and for 2012 the maximum increase is 2.7%. Taxable Values are uncapped when there is a transfer of ownership or appeal settlement. We can help you assess and manage your property tax burden with our proven 6-phase system. Our highly successful system evaluates your existing tax processes and, based on your needs, creates a process that complements and enhances the original methods. At Paradigm Tax Group, our goal is to ensure that your property is valued correctly and, if it is not, we know the process to get it reduced. We meet face to face with local jurisdiction representatives to resolve inaccuracies in the records and valuation methodology. If a formal appeal is called for, Paradigm's approach leads to a successful resolution without a formal hearing at the Michigan Tax Tribunal virtually 100% of the time.
Michigan property taxes can also be tricky because taxes are paid in advance of the year they are due. We help taxpayers organize their real and personal property taxes so that they understand their tax situation better and feel more comfortable with it.
We can help you take advantage of the numerous Michigan tax exemptions and abatements, like the New Personal Property Exemption, the Industrial Facilities Exemption, Water and Air Pollution Control Exemptions, or the Commercial Facilities Exemption. Our experts take the available detail into account when creating a constructive, proactive property tax process for you and your company.

To support these efforts, we have designed a robust Web-based property tax management system, enhancing your portfolio information with our national expertise and proactively managing your assessments and tax liability.
