The Fair Share Report

199 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

≈ $670,617

Likely range $563,854 – $730,213, from 12 comparable Hamilton sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $670,617 home should be assessed near $411,222.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$401,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $9,622 below what the ratio math suggests (2.3%).

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

$3.708 per $100 assessed

$1.510 Schools · 41% $0.831 County · 22% $1.367 Town · 37%

This home's own bill implies $3.419 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$13,731/yr
Public schools$5,592
Mercer County$3,077
Town of Hamilton$5,062
Hamilton average$8,075

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Hamilton's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
