Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $364,792 – $489,716, from 12 comparable Jefferson 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 Jefferson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $426,953 home should be assessed near $297,672.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $113,672 below what the ratio math suggests (38.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Jefferson home
$1.809 Schools · 60% $0.295 County · 10% $0.899 Town · 30%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Jefferson sale · assessed ÷ market

Keep quiet and enjoy it
This home's assessment ratio sits below the Jefferson pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
