Assessed value $1,176 × the 2024 rate of 7.29% for tax code 05002 (Dry Point Township), billed in 2025.
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.
Recorded sales
No arm's-length transfer recorded on this parcel since 2017, the start of the county record we hold. Transfers between family members, nominal-consideration deeds and court sales are not shown.
