Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $580,085 – $690,035, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,197 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 $626,123 home should be assessed near $224,277.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $45,477 below what the ratio math suggests (20.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home
$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%
This home's own bill implies $5.858 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Wayne sale · assessed ÷ market

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