The Fair Share Report

190 Applegate Dr

Hamilton, NJ 08690

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

≈ $564,583

Likely range $525,000 – $627,193, from 12 comparable Hamilton sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,168 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

61.32%

The state's official measure of how far Hamilton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $564,583 home should be assessed near $346,202.

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $21,398 above what the ratio math suggests (6.2%).
