Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $1,659,552 – $2,944,875, from 12 comparable Morris 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 Morris assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,184,839 home should be assessed near $1,594,496.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $59,304 above what the ratio math suggests (3.7%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Morris home
$1.147 Schools · 58% $0.303 County · 15% $0.517 Town · 26%
Step 5 · The bill

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