Eastham's 2016 Tax Assessments

I met with Belinda Eyestone, the Eastham Town Assessor. Eastham's 2016 assessment data is available now, quite a bit earlier than last year. She gave me the 'highlights'. A few data points...

• The 2016 assessment information is intended to represent home values as of 1/1/2015
• The median single family residential home assessment for 2016 is $392,550, up 2.6% from the 2015 median assessment
• The average assessed value is $457,583 (up 2.7%)
• There were 5,106 single family homes in Eastham as of 1/1/2015  (up 3 from 2014)
• The total assessed value for Eastham's single family residences is $2.336 Billion (up 2.7%)

The 2016 real estate tax rate for Eastham will be $7.44/thousand (up 4.8%). The tax on the median-valued home will be $2,925.

The 2016 assessments for individual homes should be available soon on the Town of Eastham website...Here. The newspaper formatted version of the assessments will no longer be available.
