The Fair Share Report

12 Mitchell Rd

Readington, NJ 08876

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

≈ $898,542

Likely range $767,024 – $935,546, from 12 comparable Readington sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

69.43%

The state's official measure of how far Readington assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $898,542 home should be assessed near $623,858.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$592,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $31,258 below what the ratio math suggests (5.0%).
