Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $445,000 – $601,000, from 12 comparable Somerville sales in the past 18 months.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Somerville assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $580,000 home should be assessed near $341,040.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $108,740 below what the ratio math suggests (31.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Somerville home
$2.388 Schools · 59% $0.552 County · 14% $1.138 Town · 28%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Somerville sale · assessed ÷ market
