The Fair Share Report

16 Rupell Rd

Union, NJ 08809

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

≈ $715,817

Likely range $661,996 – $795,513, from 12 comparable Union sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

86.66%

The state's official measure of how far Union assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $715,817 home should be assessed near $620,327.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$569,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $51,327 below what the ratio math suggests (8.3%).

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

$2.196 per $100 assessed

$1.570 Schools · 72% $0.386 County · 18% $0.239 Town · 11%

Step 5 · The bill

$12,501/yr
Public schools$8,941

Paying about right

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