Washtenaw County, Michigan
Washtenaw County is one of the seven counties Rollworth currently works in. Send us an address and we will read the assessment record for that parcel.
Check my assessmentWashtenaw has a strong income-producing base, including multi-family and mixed-use around Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, alongside commercial along the I-94 corridor. Income-producing property is assessed on assumptions about rent and vacancy, and assumptions are exactly the kind of thing evidence can test.
If your building is assessed on rent it does not achieve or occupancy it does not have, the assessment is built on a figure that can be shown to be wrong.
County seat: Ann Arbor
Anywhere in Washtenaw County, not only these. They are listed because people search by the place they live rather than by the county.
The part most people are never told
Michigan calculates your property tax on Taxable Value, not on Assessed Value. They are two different numbers on the same notice, and for most property that has not changed hands recently, Taxable Value is the lower of the two. It is capped, and it rises slowly.
After a successful appeal, your Taxable Value becomes whichever is lower: what it already was, or your new Assessed Value. So winning a reduction in Assessed Value only reaches this year's bill if the value we can justify falls below your current Taxable Value.
If it does not, the appeal is real and the saving is zero. That is not a fine-print exception. It is the ordinary case for a property somebody has owned for a while.
What we check before we encourage anybody
The assessment we can support must be lower than your current Taxable Value.
If that is not true for your parcel, we tell you there are no first-year savings. We do not put you into a follow-up sequence and we do not show you a hypothetical.
The same schedule everywhere we work. No upfront fee, and no fee at all without a reduction.
Commercial, industrial, mixed use
The 10-day window runs from the timestamp on the engagement offer we send you. We do not restart it, and it is not a countdown on a page.
Residential
Every engagement runs 3 assessment years, with an annual review and refiling. There is no upfront fee on either schedule, and no outcome is guaranteed.
