Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $254,093 – $303,915, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,120 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 $280,000 home should be assessed near $148,260.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $146,240 above what the ratio math suggests (98.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home
$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
