Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $424,623 – $542,554, from 12 comparable Franklin 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 Franklin assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $476,007 home should be assessed near $427,692.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $11,108 above what the ratio math suggests (2.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Franklin home
$1.327 Schools · 53% $0.422 County · 17% $0.765 Town · 30%
This home's own bill implies $2.289 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

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