The Fair Share Report

16 Pine St

Edison, NJ 08817

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

≈ $593,162

Likely range $549,285 – $744,970, from 12 comparable Edison sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

29.69%

The state's official measure of how far Edison assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $593,162 home should be assessed near $176,110.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$190,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $14,190 above what the ratio math suggests (8.1%).

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

$5.724 per $100 assessed

$3.139 Schools · 55% $0.990 County · 17% $1.595 Town · 28%

Step 5 · The bill

$11,325/yr
Public schools$6,210
Middlesex County$1,959
Town of Edison$3,156
Edison average$10,584

Paying about right

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