The Fair Share Report

2 Park Ave

Helmetta, NJ 08828

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

≈ $367,342

Likely range $307,305 – $413,023, from 12 comparable Helmetta sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

55.50%

The state's official measure of how far Helmetta assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $367,342 home should be assessed near $203,875.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$248,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $45,025 above what the ratio math suggests (22.1%).

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

$3.558 per $100 assessed

$2.120 Schools · 60% $0.601 County · 17% $0.836 Town · 24%

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Helmetta, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (63.82%).
