The Fair Share Report

108 Rt 565

Wantage, NJ 07438

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

≈ $335,466

Likely range $245,125 – $379,251, from 12 comparable Wantage sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

64.60%

The state's official measure of how far Wantage assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $335,466 home should be assessed near $216,711.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$222,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $5,989 above what the ratio math suggests (2.8%).

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

$3.002 per $100 assessed

$2.064 Schools · 69% $0.589 County · 20% $0.349 Town · 12%

This home's own bill implies $2.255 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Step 5 · The bill

Paying about right

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