Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $625,244 – $767,832, from 12 comparable Hamilton 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 Hamilton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $702,502 home should be assessed near $430,774.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $40,774 below what the ratio math suggests (9.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Hamilton home
$1.510 Schools · 41% $0.831 County · 22% $1.367 Town · 37%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Hamilton sale · assessed ÷ market

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