Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $499,353 – $627,443, from 12 comparable Howell 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 Howell assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $580,472 home should be assessed near $563,116.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $78,516 below what the ratio math suggests (13.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Howell home
$1.121 Schools · 68% $0.218 County · 13% $0.320 Town · 19%
Step 5 · The bill

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