Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $514,577 – $596,819, from 12 comparable Wayne 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 Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $541,720 home should be assessed near $194,044.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $112,356 above what the ratio math suggests (57.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home
$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%
Step 5 · The bill

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
