Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $405,901 – $709,246, from 12 comparable Stafford sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Stafford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $502,441 home should be assessed near $260,516.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $117,784 above what the ratio math suggests (45.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Stafford home
$1.048 Schools · 40% $0.603 County · 23% $0.972 Town · 37%
This home's own bill implies $1.212 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.
Step 5 · The bill

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Stafford's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
