Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $328,865 – $455,969, 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 $409,372 home should be assessed near $243,208.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $44,608 below what the ratio math suggests (18.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Washington home
$2.183 Schools · 60% $0.691 County · 19% $0.790 Town · 22%
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.
