Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $280,707 – $319,643, from 12 comparable Alpha sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,432 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Alpha assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $293,219 home should be assessed near $186,693.

Paying about right
