The Fair Share Report

21 E Lee Ave

Absecon, NJ 08201

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

≈ $253,658

Likely range $168,854 – $320,212, from 12 comparable Absecon sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

62.77%

The state's official measure of how far Absecon assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $253,658 home should be assessed near $159,221.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$115,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $44,221 below what the ratio math suggests (27.8%).

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

$3.517 per $100 assessed

$1.737 Schools · 49% $0.611 County · 17% $1.169 Town · 33%
