Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $193,287 – $329,099, from 12 comparable Lawnside 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 Lawnside assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $286,590 home should be assessed near $174,791.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $38,091 below what the ratio math suggests (21.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Lawnside home
$2.467 Schools · 51% $0.943 County · 19% $1.465 Town · 30%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Lawnside sale · assessed ÷ market

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