The Fair Share Report

161 Thomas Ave

Monroe, NJ 08094

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

≈ $288,842

Likely range $203,219 – $328,390, from 12 comparable Monroe sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

59.47%

The state's official measure of how far Monroe assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $288,842 home should be assessed near $171,774.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$126,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $44,974 below what the ratio math suggests (26.2%).

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

$3.768 per $100 assessed

$2.028 Schools · 54% $0.694 County · 18% $1.046 Town · 28%

Step 5 · The bill

$4,779/yr
Public schools$2,572
