MICHIGAN HOUSE DEMOCRATS PUSH A $42 MILLION TAX INCREASE
While Democrats control Michigan, taxes go up. It happens every time. House Speaker Andy Dillon and the Democrat-controlled state House of Representatives are seeking another unnecessary tax hike on homeowners and are refusing to take up a Republican-sponsored initiative that would help keep families in their homes without raising taxes. Speaker Dillon's plan to raise taxes would further reduce home equity and make selling a house more difficult than it already is.
Dillon's plan, House Bill 4441 will increase the Real Estate Transfer Tax. The Real Estate Transfer Tax is similar to sales tax, except that the seller is the one who pays instead of the buyer. Homeowners in Michigan would pay an extra dollar in taxes per $1,000 of the sale price of their home.
