Pittsfield Township Property Assessment Information

Pittsfield Charter Township maintains its own:

Assessing Department

The township provides online access to property-assessment information and specifically offers resources involving:

• Property Tax & Assessment Information

• Property Transfer Affidavit

• Principal Residence Exemption forms

• Board of Review information

The current Assessing Department is located at:

6201 W. Michigan Avenue
Ann Arbor, MI 48108

For deed-preparation research, local assessment records can help us cross-reference the property before comparing it with county land records.

Search Pittsfield Township Property by Address, Name, or Parcel Number

Pittsfield Township uses:

BS&A Online

for municipal property information.

The current system allows resident users to search by:

Address

Name

Parcel Number

That can be particularly useful if you only know the street address.

You do not necessarily need to know your parcel number before contacting us.

For professional preparation orders, the address can often serve as the starting point for deeper property research.

Pittsfield Township GIS Maps

Pittsfield Township maintains a dedicated:

Maps and GIS System

The township describes its GIS as a web-based interactive mapping resource used to share data and provide visual access to complex property and geographic information.

GIS information may help with:

• Parcel identification

• Property location

• Geographic context

• Address verification

• Municipal boundary information

• Cross-referencing parcel records

Important

GIS maps are useful research tools.

They are not legal boundary surveys, title certifications, or ownership opinions.

Washtenaw County Property/Parcel Lookup

Washtenaw County provides a countywide:

Property/Parcel Lookup

The county states that this tool combines current real-property information from:

• Washtenaw County Treasurer

• Equalization and Property Description Department

This provides another layer of information when researching Pittsfield Township property.

Professional preparation may involve comparing:

Township BS&A + County Parcel Records + GIS + Prior Recorded Deed

to make sure we are working with the correct property.

MapWashtenaw GIS

Washtenaw County also provides:

MapWashtenaw

The county states that MapWashtenaw provides public access to its latest available property data along with layers including aerial photography and other mapped information.

MapWashtenaw can be useful for:

• Parcel research

• Property location

• Geographic context

• Aerial imagery

• Cross-referencing property information

Again, GIS data should not be treated as a certified survey or title opinion.

Don’t Have Your Current Recorded Deed?

You may not need to find it yourself.

The:

Washtenaw County Register of Deeds

serves as the repository for real and personal property records concerning land located in Washtenaw County.

The county provides:

• Online Land Record Search

• Public document searches

• Copies of recorded documents

• eRecording resources

• Property fraud alerts

For professional preparation orders, we may attempt to locate the prior recorded deed as part of our property research.

Why the Previous Recorded Deed Matters

A new deed should not be prepared by simply guessing at the existing property information.

The prior recorded deed may contain:

• Exact current owner names

• Existing ownership wording

• Legal description

• Parcel references

• Prior recording information

• Lot numbers

• Subdivision information

• Plat references

• Previous conveyance language

Our professional preparation service can include research of available public records in an effort to locate and cross-reference this information.

Your Pittsfield Township Street Address Is Not the Legal Description

A street address tells us where a property is physically located.

It generally does not replace the complete legal description appearing in recorded land records.

A legal description may contain:

• Lot numbers

• Block numbers

• Subdivision names

• Plat references

• Section information

• Township and range references

• Metes-and-bounds descriptions

• Other formal property-description language

For professional preparation orders, we may research:

Pittsfield Township records + Washtenaw County parcel data + GIS + prior recorded deeds

in an effort to identify the existing legal description.

What Is a Michigan Quitclaim Deed?

A Michigan Quitclaim Deed generally transfers whatever ownership interest a grantor currently possesses in real property to another person or entity.

The person transferring the property interest is generally called the:

Grantor

The person receiving the property interest is generally called the:

Grantee

A Quitclaim Deed generally does not provide the same warranties concerning title that may accompany certain other deed types.

Because choosing a deed can affect important legal rights, we cannot determine which deed you should use.

If you have already decided that a Quitclaim Deed is the document you want, however, we can prepare it according to your instructions.

Common Pittsfield Township Quitclaim Deed Transactions

Customers may request deed preparation for situations involving:

Family Property Transfers

Property interests may be transferred between:

• Spouses

• Parents and children

• Siblings

• Other relatives

Adding Someone to a Deed

A current property owner may already have decided to convey an ownership interest to another person.

Divorce-Related Property Transfers

A deed may be needed to complete an agreed-upon or court-directed property transfer between former spouses.

Transfers Between Co-Owners

One current owner may transfer an ownership interest to another owner.

Estate-Planning Transactions

A customer may have received instructions from an attorney or estate-planning professional to complete a particular property transfer.

Trust, LLC, or Business Transfers

Customers may request deed preparation after independently deciding that property should be transferred to or from a trust, LLC, corporation, or another entity.

These are examples only.

We do not determine whether a particular property transfer is legally, financially, or tax-wise appropriate.

Pittsfield Township Property Transfer Affidavit

Pittsfield Township specifically provides the Michigan:

Property Transfer Affidavit

through its Assessing Department resources.

The Property Transfer Affidavit is separate from the deed itself.

Depending on the circumstances, a property transfer may also involve issues concerning:

• Taxable value

• Principal Residence Exemption

• Real-estate transfer taxes

• Mortgage obligations

• Estate planning

• Gift taxes

• Other legal or financial matters

We cannot provide legal or tax advice regarding those consequences.

Washtenaw County Transfer Taxes

$1.10 Per $1,000

where county transfer tax applies.

Michigan also imposes a separate state real-estate transfer tax where applicable.

The Register of Deeds states that transfer tax must be collected unless the instrument is exempt under the applicable law and the exemption is stated on the face of the deed.

Important

We cannot determine:

• Whether your transfer is taxable

• Whether an exemption applies

• Which exemption should be claimed

• Your tax liability

• The legal or tax consequences of the transfer

If you need advice regarding transfer taxes or exemptions, consult a licensed Michigan attorney, CPA, or other qualified tax professional.

Why Choose Professional Preparation Instead of Just the $9.99 Form?

Some customers already have every property detail and are comfortable completing a deed themselves.

That’s why we offer the $9.99 DIY option.

Professional preparation may make more sense if you don’t want to spend your time:

• Finding the previous deed

• Searching Pittsfield Township BS&A

• Locating the parcel number

• Researching township GIS

• Searching Washtenaw County parcel records

• Using MapWashtenaw

• Finding the legal description

• Searching Register of Deeds records

• Reviewing recording requirements

• Formatting the deed

• Coordinating notarization

With our $225 and $400 options:

We Do Much of the Research for You.

Property Research Is Not a Formal Title Search

Our professional preparation services can include substantial public-record research.

However, document-preparation research should not be confused with formal title work.

When we research:

Pittsfield Township BS&A + Township GIS + Washtenaw County Property/Parcel Lookup + MapWashtenaw + Register of Deeds Records + Prior Deeds

we are gathering available information for the purpose of preparing the document requested by the customer.

Our Property Research Does Not:

• Certify ownership

• Guarantee clear title

• Guarantee marketable title

• Issue title insurance

• Provide an attorney title opinion

• Certify lien status

• Determine whether another person has an ownership claim

• Determine whether a mortgage permits the transfer

• Perform a legal boundary survey

If you need formal title research, title insurance, lien analysis, or a legal opinion concerning property ownership, contact a licensed Michigan attorney or title company.

Michigan Property Transfers May Involve Additional Paperwork

A Quitclaim Deed may not be the only paperwork associated with a Michigan property transfer.

Depending upon the circumstances, there may also be considerations involving:

• Michigan Property Transfer Affidavit

• Real-estate transfer taxes

• Transfer-tax exemptions

• Property-tax uncapping

• Principal Residence Exemption

• Mortgage obligations

• Gift-tax considerations

• Capital gains

• Estate planning

• Probate

• Medicaid planning

We cannot provide legal or tax advice concerning these matters.

If you are uncertain how a transfer may affect you, consult a licensed Michigan attorney, CPA, tax professional, assessor, or other qualified professional.

Important Non-Attorney Disclaimer

We are a non-attorney document preparation and notary staffing agency. We are not a law firm, and we do not provide legal advice, legal representation, title opinions, or other legal opinions concerning real-estate transactions.

We cannot tell you what your legal rights or remedies are, whether you should transfer real estate, which type of deed you should use, who should be added to or removed from ownership, how title should be held, or what effect a property transfer may have on taxes, mortgages, creditors, divorce, probate, Medicaid, trusts, estate planning, transfer taxes, or other legal or financial matters.

Our property research is performed solely for document-preparation purposes. It is not a formal title search, title examination, lien certification, ownership certification, title-insurance service, boundary survey, or attorney opinion regarding title.

Public records, GIS information, maps, assessment information, and third-party databases can contain incomplete, outdated, or conflicting information. If available records are insufficient to reliably prepare the requested document, additional documentation or assistance from a Michigan attorney, title company, or surveyor may be necessary.

Documents are prepared with applicable Michigan and local recording requirements in mind. Final acceptance for recording remains subject to the requirements and review of the Washtenaw County Register of Deeds or other applicable governmental authority.
