The Fair Share Report

2 Adele Ct

Middletown, NJ 07701

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

≈ $1,006,304

Likely range $876,713 – $1,335,185, from 12 comparable Middletown sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

98.35%

The state's official measure of how far Middletown assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,006,304 home should be assessed near $989,700.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,155,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $166,100 above what the ratio math suggests (16.8%).

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

$1.614 per $100 assessed

$0.990 Schools · 61% $0.195 County · 12% $0.429 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $1.554 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$17,957/yr
Public schools$11,015
Monmouth County$2,170
