The Fair Share Report

1143 Sixth Ave

Alpha, NJ 08804

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

≈ $187,723

Likely range $161,292 – $246,611, from 12 comparable Alpha sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

63.67%

The state's official measure of how far Alpha assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $187,723 home should be assessed near $119,523.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$75,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $43,923 below what the ratio math suggests (36.7%).

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

$3.484 per $100 assessed

$1.754 Schools · 50% $0.758 County · 22% $0.973 Town · 28%

Step 5 · The bill

$2,635/yr
Public schools$1,326
Warren County$573
Town of Alpha$736
Alpha average$6,415

Paying about right

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