Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $724,276 – $926,122, from 12 comparable Middletown 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 Middletown assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $830,183 home should be assessed near $816,485.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $167,615 above what the ratio math suggests (20.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Middletown home
$0.990 Schools · 61% $0.195 County · 12% $0.429 Town · 27%
This home's own bill implies $1.558 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (100.00%) — roughly $2,705/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
