Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $289,661 – $377,495, from 12 comparable Franklin 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 Franklin assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $343,750 home should be assessed near $200,888.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $48,188 below what the ratio math suggests (24.0%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Franklin home
$2.153 Schools · 58% $0.732 County · 20% $0.856 Town · 23%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Franklin sale · assessed ÷ market

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