Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $359,087 – $436,420, from 12 comparable Dover sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,230 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Dover assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $371,601 home should be assessed near $228,089.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $23,089 below what the ratio math suggests (10.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Dover home
$1.500 Schools · 43% $0.346 County · 10% $1.643 Town · 47%
