The Fair Share Report

21 Brookside Dr

Warren, NJ 07059

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

≈ $957,616

Likely range $746,177 – $1,073,927, from 12 comparable Warren sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

100.91%

The state's official measure of how far Warren assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $957,616 home should be assessed near $966,330.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,077,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $111,470 above what the ratio math suggests (11.5%).

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

$1.752 per $100 assessed

$1.140 Schools · 65% $0.333 County · 19% $0.279 Town · 16%

This home's own bill implies $1.646 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$17,743/yr
Public schools$11,545
Somerset County$3,372
Town of Warren$2,825
Warren average$16,986

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 $1,953/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
