Assessing

In accordance with the General Property Tax Laws of the State of Michigan, the Bloomfield Township Assessor's Office estimates the true cash value, assessed value and taxable value of every parcel of real and personal property within Bloomfield Township. The Assessor's Office is responsible for the valuation of all real and personal property in Bloomfield Township that is not specifically exempted by law. It prepares assessment rolls and evaluates all new construction and improvements to real property.

The taxable status of property is determined as of December 31 of each year for the next tax year.

The Assessor’s Office reviews the assessment records of both new construction and existing property throughout the year. Schedules vary significantly from one project to another; therefore, the Office may make a number of inspections of a property throughout the year.

When conducting inspections, employees from the Assessor’s Office knock on the door or ring the doorbell to announce and introduce themselves. Each individual has picture identification issued by Bloomfield Township.
