The Fair Share Report

21 Rolling Rd

Middlesex, NJ 08846

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

≈ $493,107

Likely range $398,125 – $517,017, from 12 comparable Middlesex sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.52%

The state's official measure of how far Middlesex assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $493,107 home should be assessed near $480,878.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$482,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $1,922 above what the ratio math suggests (0.4%).

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

$2.119 per $100 assessed

$1.137 Schools · 54% $0.340 County · 16% $0.643 Town · 30%

This home's own bill implies $2.019 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$9,746/yr
Public schools$5,227
Middlesex County$1,563
Town of Middlesex$2,956

Paying about right
