Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $455,765 – $598,238, from 12 comparable Newark 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 Newark assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $552,421 home should be assessed near $224,780.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $101,580 below what the ratio math suggests (45.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Newark home
$1.162 Schools · 29% $0.519 County · 13% $2.318 Town · 58%
Step 5 · The bill

Keep quiet and enjoy it
This home's assessment ratio sits below the Newark pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
