Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $1,518,815 – $2,313,470, from 12 comparable Avalon 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 Avalon assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,953,438 home should be assessed near $1,060,326.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $522,126 below what the ratio math suggests (49.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Avalon home
$0.032 Schools · 5% $0.313 County · 52% $0.262 Town · 43%
Step 5 · The bill

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