Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $251,736 – $290,440, from 12 comparable Monroe sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,160 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Monroe assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $280,722 home should be assessed near $166,945.

A touch high — worth watching
