The Fair Share Report

2015 Rt Us 9 So

Upper, NJ 08230

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

≈ $600,000

Likely range $535,149 – $661,162, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.65%

The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $600,000 home should be assessed near $339,900.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$413,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $73,100 above what the ratio math suggests (21.5%).

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

$2.303 per $100 assessed

$1.649 Schools · 72% $0.331 County · 14% $0.323 Town · 14%

Step 5 · The bill

$9,970/yr
Public schools$7,139
Cape May County$1,433
Town of Upper$1,398
Upper average$6,686

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Upper, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (65.15%).
