Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $418,733 – $517,685, from 12 comparable Hampton 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 Hampton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $481,004 home should be assessed near $254,644.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $13,744 below what the ratio math suggests (5.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Hampton home
$2.229 Schools · 64% $0.704 County · 20% $0.561 Town · 16%
This home's own bill implies $3.391 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Hampton sale · assessed ÷ market

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