Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $517,814 – $609,299, from 12 comparable Hampton 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 Hampton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $564,696 home should be assessed near $298,950.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $9,850 below what the ratio math suggests (3.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Hampton home
$2.229 Schools · 64% $0.704 County · 20% $0.561 Town · 16%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Hampton sale · assessed ÷ market

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