The town
What it is like to live in Shelbyville, and Lake Shelbyville nearby
What it really costs to live here
The lines a payment calculator cannot know — read from the county record and the federal maps for this address, with the source beside each one.
Property tax, from the record
Owner-occupied
$1,921 / yr
about $160 a month
Owner-occupied, 65+
$1,453 / yr
both homestead exemptions
No exemptions
$2,271 / yr
a rental or second home
Assessed value $38,882 × the 2024 rate of 5.84% for tax code 18004 (Rose Township), billed in 2025. On the asking price that is an effective 3.85%.
The owner-occupied figures take the General Homestead ($6,000 off the assessed value) and Senior Citizens ($8,000) exemptions; the senior freeze, veterans’ and home-improvement exemptions are not shown and can lower a bill further. The rate is the newest the clerk has published; the next levy will move it a little, and a sale can prompt a reassessment. Sources: Shelby County Clerk, Tax Codes and Districts Catalog, 2024 (payable 2025) and the assessor's current file. The bill of record is the treasurer's: Erica Firnhaber, Shelby County Treasurer.
USDA zero-down loan
This address is in USDA-eligible territory. The Rural Development guaranteed loan needs no down payment; a modest guarantee fee (1% up front, 0.35% a year) stands in for conventional mortgage insurance. Most buyers from a city have never been told it exists.
Eligibility of the property, checked against USDA's own map on 2026-09-22. The household income limit and the home's condition are the lender's call; any USDA-approved lender can say in a phone call.
Internet
In Shelby County, 100% of locations can get 100/20 Mbps service; fiber reaches 40.1%; gigabit 43.4%. Wired and fixed-wireless service on offer: Cable, Fiber, Licensed Fixed Wireless, Unlicensed Fixed Wireless.
County-level from the FCC's Broadband Data Collection — not a per-address check; confirm with the provider before you rely on it. Not endorsed or certified by the FCC.
Estimated Homeowner Payments
A planning estimate — not a loan offer, a pre-approval, or a quote. Every figure below is yours to change.
Estimated monthly cost
$553
- Principal & interest
- $276
- Taxes (from the record)
- $160
- Insurance
- $117
Taxes are this parcel’s bill from the county record — assessed value × the clerk’s 2024 rate, less the General Homestead Exemption — not a percentage of the price. The worksheet lets you change it.
Covers the mortgage payment, taxes and insurance. Open the breakdown to add utilities and an upkeep set-aside — both are real monthly costs of owning a home, and we have not guessed at them for you.
Estimates for planning only. This is not an offer to lend, a commitment to lend, or an advertisement of credit terms, and it does not include loan costs such as origination, title or closing fees — your lender provides those on a Loan Estimate. Taxes, insurance, utilities and upkeep are assumptions and will differ from actual amounts. Shelby Realty Services does not guarantee any figure shown here.
