Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $690,253 – $814,606, from 12 comparable Howell sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,066 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Howell assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $758,042 home should be assessed near $735,377.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,123 above what the ratio math suggests (4.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Howell home
$1.121 Schools · 68% $0.218 County · 13% $0.320 Town · 19%
This home's own bill implies $1.590 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

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