Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $233,165 – $374,071, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,061 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $278,425 home should be assessed near $147,426.
