Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $590,771 – $699,264, from 12 comparable Washington 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 Washington assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $658,669 home should be assessed near $453,230.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $122,530 below what the ratio math suggests (27.0%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Washington home
$2.143 Schools · 71% $0.320 County · 11% $0.541 Town · 18%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Washington sale · assessed ÷ market

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