Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $399,571 – $592,451, from 12 comparable Middlesex 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 Middlesex assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $499,471 home should be assessed near $487,084.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $37,884 below what the ratio math suggests (7.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Middlesex home
$1.137 Schools · 54% $0.340 County · 16% $0.643 Town · 30%
Step 5 · The bill

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