Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $529,436 – $660,299, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,320 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $576,159 home should be assessed near $326,394.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,506 above what the ratio math suggests (1.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Upper home
$1.649 Schools · 72% $0.331 County · 14% $0.323 Town · 14%

Paying about right
