Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $272,473 – $335,647, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 912 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $315,844 home should be assessed near $178,926.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $8,874 above what the ratio math suggests (5.0%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Upper home
$1.649 Schools · 72% $0.331 County · 14% $0.323 Town · 14%

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