Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $408,963 – $549,788, from 12 comparable Byram 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 Byram assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $479,915 home should be assessed near $278,927.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $54,427 below what the ratio math suggests (19.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Byram home
$2.312 Schools · 58% $0.673 County · 17% $1.033 Town · 26%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Byram sale · assessed ÷ market

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