The Fair Share Report

2 2nd Dr

Middle, NJ 08055

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

≈ $1,721,787

Likely range $1,434,655 – $2,529,384, from 12 comparable Middle sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

64.09%

The state's official measure of how far Middle assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,721,787 home should be assessed near $1,103,493.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,261,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $157,707 above what the ratio math suggests (14.3%).

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

$2.082 per $100 assessed

$1.150 Schools · 55% $0.309 County · 15% $0.623 Town · 30%

This home's own bill implies $0.656 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$4,568

Paying about right
