The Fair Share Report

116 Millbrook Rd

Hardwick, NJ 07825

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

≈ $692,494

Likely range $596,191 – $702,150, from 12 comparable Hardwick sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.97%

The state's official measure of how far Hardwick assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $692,494 home should be assessed near $366,814.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$333,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,914 below what the ratio math suggests (9.0%).

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

$3.824 per $100 assessed

$2.227 Schools · 58% $0.965 County · 25% $0.633 Town · 17%

This home's own bill implies $3.750 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$12,522/yr
Public schools$7,290
Warren County$3,159
Town of Hardwick$2,072
Hardwick average$9,648

Paying about right

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