Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $588,280 – $678,233, from 12 comparable Wayne 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 Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $637,917 home should be assessed near $228,502.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $128,198 above what the ratio math suggests (56.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home
$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%
