The Fair Share Report

19 Pine Rd

Howell, NJ 07731

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

≈ $570,811

Likely range $486,902 – $588,023, from 12 comparable Howell sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.01%

The state's official measure of how far Howell assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $570,811 home should be assessed near $553,744.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$460,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $93,144 below what the ratio math suggests (16.8%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Howell pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
