Step 1 · Market value

≈ $397,406

Likely range $365,296 – $419,743, from 12 comparable East Hanover sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

51.41%

The state's official measure of how far East Hanover assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $397,406 home should be assessed near $204,306.

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $136,106 below what the ratio math suggests (66.6%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the East Hanover pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
