Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $793,443 – $962,083, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,548 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $900,860 home should be assessed near $322,688.
