The Fair Share Report

16 Walnut St

Morris, NJ 07960

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

≈ $631,500

Likely range $506,260 – $722,689, from 12 comparable Morris sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.98%

The state's official measure of how far Morris assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $631,500 home should be assessed near $460,869.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$320,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $139,969 below what the ratio math suggests (30.4%).

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

$1.968 per $100 assessed

$1.147 Schools · 58% $0.303 County · 15% $0.517 Town · 26%
