The houses

What Livonia houses are like

The Census puts the median home in Livonia at $281,100, 57% above Wayne County's $178,500.

The median house was built in 1964, and 37% of the 39,665 homes here date from 1940 to 1959. Houses from those years are often on their second or third furnace and roof, and many still have their original sewer line.

38% of owners have no mortgage, so a cash price goes to them less closing costs and any taxes owed.

3% of homes stand vacant, by the Census count.

The median property tax bill is $3,860 a year; it is split at closing by the days each side owned the house.

When Livonia's homes were built

  • 1960 to 1979 37%

  2. March 1, 2027 The house forfeits to the Wayne County Treasurer: a $175 fee is added and the interest grows by half a percent a month.
  3. March 31, 2028 The last day to pay. After a circuit court judgment, the Wayne County Treasurer takes title and the house goes to auction that summer or fall.

Questions

Selling a house for cash in Livonia

Who buys houses for cash in Livonia?

Rebuild Detroit buys houses in Livonia itself, and cash buyers and wholesalers in our network serve it too, among them Dearborn Heights Carpet & Flooring Group. Rebuild Detroit makes its own offer and checks your request against them, so you see the best one.

How much would Rebuild Detroit pay for a Livonia house?

Our offer starts from what the house would sell for fixed up, less the repairs, and never above what listing it would leave you. On a Livonia house worth $281,100 fixed up that needs a new roof and a furnace, that is about $151,000. Type your own address for your own offer; it holds 95% of the time when the condition you give is accurate.

Do I need a city inspection to sell a house in Livonia?

Some Metro Detroit towns require a sale inspection or certificate before closing and others do not. Ask Livonia's building department before you list. Livonia City Hall is at 33000 Civic Center Dr, (734) 466-2200.

What if I am behind on property taxes in Wayne County?

Unpaid taxes go to the Wayne County Treasurer ((313) 224-5990) on March 1. If they stay unpaid, the house forfeits a year later and the foreclosure takes title on March 31 of the year after that. Selling before then pays the taxes at closing, and the rest is yours.

Can I sell my Livonia house as is?

Yes. Rebuild Detroit and the cash buyers in our network buy as is, with no repairs or cleanout. You still fill out the Michigan seller disclosure with what you know about the house, and a title company checks for liens and pays you at closing.
