Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $258,312 – $382,403, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,248 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 $314,026 home should be assessed near $166,277.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $25,877 below what the ratio math suggests (15.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home
$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
