Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $410,111 – $504,371, from 12 comparable Stafford 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 Stafford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $438,750 home should be assessed near $227,492.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $192,008 above what the ratio math suggests (84.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Stafford home
$1.048 Schools · 40% $0.603 County · 23% $0.972 Town · 37%
This home's own bill implies $1.203 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (59.63%) — roughly $5,036/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
