The Fair Share Report

16 Devon Dr

Howell, NJ 07731

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

≈ $1,189,255

Likely range $964,315 – $1,396,395, from 12 comparable Howell sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.01%

The state's official measure of how far Howell assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,189,255 home should be assessed near $1,153,696.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$976,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $177,696 below what the ratio math suggests (15.4%).

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

$1.659 per $100 assessed

$1.121 Schools · 68% $0.218 County · 13% $0.320 Town · 19%
