The Fair Share Report

1604 Eighth St

Ewing, NJ 08638

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

≈ $295,583

Likely range $267,281 – $390,687, from 12 comparable Ewing sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

63.20%

The state's official measure of how far Ewing assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $295,583 home should be assessed near $186,808.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$135,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $51,408 below what the ratio math suggests (27.5%).

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

$4.051 per $100 assessed

$2.100 Schools · 52% $0.894 County · 22% $1.057 Town · 26%

Step 5 · The bill

$5,485/yr
Public schools$2,843
