The easiest way for you to do this is have your favorite real estate agent look into this. If you do not have a favorite real estate agent or they do not know how to perform this, let me know. I can help get the money back that you paid in. The easiest way for me to do that is to send me and email and I can look for you, usually in a few minutes if I am free. Usually I have an answer whether you qualify within a day or two. But, if you want to look into this yourself, here is how you do it.
- Download SRETT application at Michigan state of treasury SRETT refund application
- Fill out the information in Sections (Part) 1-3 & 5
- Obtain the required documentation from your County (deed) and local municipality (township or city)
- Mail out to the address on the bottom of the SRETT refund page and wait for the check.
Part 2-5 are the tougher sections to complete. Should you have any questions on what to write in the different sections, call or e-mail my team. We are happy to help.
Side note:I am finding about 40-50% of the people that I mention this to are eligible for the refund and since the beginning of 2016, I have aided in the refund of several past clients, neighbors and friends. So far over $15,000 has been returned to them.
That's pretty cool.
edit: as of 2/16/16 $23,182 has been returned to my clients and new friends.
