Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $494,871 – $641,425, from 12 comparable Ewing sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Ewing assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $558,676 home should be assessed near $353,083.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $57,617 above what the ratio math suggests (16.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ewing home
$2.100 Schools · 52% $0.894 County · 22% $1.057 Town · 26%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Ewing sale · assessed ÷ market

A touch high — worth watching
This home's ratio sits above most of Ewing, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (72.68%).
