Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $317,293 – $414,314, from 12 comparable Middle 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 Middle assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $353,028 home should be assessed near $226,256.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $70,656 below what the ratio math suggests (31.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Middle home
$1.150 Schools · 55% $0.309 County · 15% $0.623 Town · 30%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Middle sale · assessed ÷ market
32%84%
Keep quiet and enjoy it
This home's assessment ratio sits below the Middle pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
