Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $428,219 – $504,187, from 12 comparable Pitman 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 Pitman assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $462,423 home should be assessed near $339,002.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $14,002 below what the ratio math suggests (4.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Pitman home
$2.089 Schools · 58% $0.582 County · 16% $0.924 Town · 26%
Step 5 · The bill

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