How can I find out what I paid in taxes last year?
If you live within the City of Midland, tax payment information can be found by contacting the City Treasurer's Department at 989-837-3315.
If you live outside the City but within Midland County, you can search for tax information on
Midland County's website
.
3.
Why do I pay more in taxes than my neighbor when our assessed values are the same?
Taxes are calculated based on taxable value. Similar properties cannot be compared by looking at taxable values or tax bills, because Proposal A creates disparities between similar properties and their taxable values. The assessed value of your property is determined based on the local real estate market and is the only accurate indicator of uniformity among property values.
For more information, see
How Property Taxes Are Calculated
.
4.
How do I find out why I received a delinquent tax bill from the Midland County Treasurer's Office?
Contact the Midland County Treasurer’s Office at 989-832-6850.

Is there an easy way to figure what my taxes will be if I buy a house?
Yes. Refer to the webpage that details

6.
What is the difference between assessed value and taxable value?
Assessed value is 50% of market value, while taxable value (used to levy property taxes) is, in most cases, less than that. However, when a property is transferred or sold, the taxable value of a property is "uncapped," or becomes equal to the assessed value, for the year following the year in which the sale or transfer took place.

Tax billing information can be found on the
Property Tax Information

8.
How quickly are tax payments updated on the City's website?

Why does the online tax bill information show a Total Due = 0.00 when I may still owe delinquent taxes?
Each year on March 1, all delinquent real property taxes and delinquent special assessments are turned over to the Midland Country Treasurer’s Office for collection and are no longer payable to the City of Midland. After March 1, City records will not show the amount of delinquent taxes.
