Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $368,252 – $586,601, from 12 comparable Berlin 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 Berlin assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $491,490 home should be assessed near $327,087.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $13,787 below what the ratio math suggests (4.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berlin home
$1.813 Schools · 52% $0.779 County · 22% $0.879 Town · 25%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Berlin sale · assessed ÷ market

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