This home's payments are about right

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

≈ $928,162

Likely range $687,426 – $1,141,548, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
