The Fair Share Report

106 Pine Ave

Middle, NJ 08251

The town corrects for market drift once a year — but only on average. This report measures whether this house drifted with the herd or away from it.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $494,423

Likely range $467,986 – $567,868, from 12 comparable Middle sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

64.09%

The state's official measure of how far Middle assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $494,423 home should be assessed near $316,876.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$232,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $84,176 below what the ratio math suggests (26.6%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Middle home

$2.082 per $100 assessed

$1.150 Schools · 55% $0.309 County · 15% $0.623 Town · 30%

Step 5 · The bill

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.
