Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $739,611 – $899,709, from 12 comparable Washington 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 Washington assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $813,606 home should be assessed near $559,842.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $87,342 below what the ratio math suggests (15.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Washington home
$2.143 Schools · 71% $0.320 County · 11% $0.541 Town · 18%
This home's own bill implies $2.950 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Washington sale · assessed ÷ market

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