Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $502,868 – $580,916, from 12 comparable Old Bridge sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Old Bridge assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $534,665 home should be assessed near $151,471.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $19,771 below what the ratio math suggests (13.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Old Bridge home
$3.800 Schools · 62% $1.156 County · 19% $1.138 Town · 19%
