The Fair Share Report

1175 Sixth Ave

Alpha, NJ 08865

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

≈ $214,701

Likely range $194,803 – $277,147, from 12 comparable Alpha sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 987 sq ft.

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 $214,701 home should be assessed near $136,700.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$137,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $700 above what the ratio math suggests (0.5%).

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

$4,788/yr
Public schools$2,410

Paying about right
