The town adjusts for market price changes once a year — but only based on the average price change of all homes in the area. This report checks whether this house's assessment kept pace.

This home's payments are about right

It sits inside Berkeley's normal range — market price changes haven't singled it out. No case for a tax appeal.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $284,250

Likely range $237,105 – $312,946, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $284,250 home should be assessed near $150,510.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$104,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $46,110 below what the ratio math suggests (30.6%).
