What to check on your notice
If your 2026 notice shows a higher value than last year, ask why. The typical Sherwood home lost 0.1% over the same stretch. A higher number can still be right for a specific home, for example after a remodel, but the city or township assessor should be able to explain it.

Deadline and where to file
Sherwood values are set by the local city or township assessor. First protest to your local March Board of Review, which starts hearing appeals on the second Monday in March (a local unit can move the start to the Tuesday or Wednesday of that week). Dates and the letter-appeal cutoff are set locally. To go further on a residential property you must file a petition with the Michigan Tax Tribunal by July 31 of the tax year.
Reading this in fall 2026? The 2026 July 31 Tax Tribunal deadline has passed. The next regular chance is the March 2027 Board of Review. The state's rule puts appeal meetings on the second Monday in March, which is March 8, 2027, though your city or township sets its own hours and letter-appeal cutoff, so check its site in February when notices go out. If you miss that, the July and December Boards of Review (the December 2026 one is scheduled for Dec 15 unless your local unit moves it) have much narrower authority, so do not count on them for an ordinary value dispute.
The Branch County guide covers the full Michigan appeal process: forms, fees, hearing levels and what happens next.

A citywide index shows the trend. Your case needs your house. Sherwood is part of the Coldwater metro, but your evidence should be local. Sales a few streets away usually beat sales across the metro.
- Keep your Board of Review decision notice. It must be attached to a Tax Tribunal petition.
