The Fair Share Report

2 Mill Rd

Matawan, NJ 07747

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

≈ $1,130,583

Likely range $910,068 – $1,261,943, from 12 comparable Matawan sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.95%

The state's official measure of how far Matawan assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,130,583 home should be assessed near $1,107,406.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$987,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $119,706 below what the ratio math suggests (10.8%).

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

$2.086 per $100 assessed

$1.221 Schools · 59% $0.196 County · 9% $0.670 Town · 32%

This home's own bill implies $1.960 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
