Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $395,455 – $1,556,766, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,508 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 $422,322 home should be assessed near $239,245.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $463,055 above what the ratio math suggests (193.5%).
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
