The Fair Share Report

26 Patrick Dr

Union, NJ 08867

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

≈ $438,127

Likely range $411,497 – $461,546, from 12 comparable Union sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

86.66%

The state's official measure of how far Union assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $438,127 home should be assessed near $379,681.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$419,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $39,719 above what the ratio math suggests (10.5%).

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

$2.196 per $100 assessed

$1.570 Schools · 72% $0.386 County · 18% $0.239 Town · 11%

Step 5 · The bill

$9,214/yr
Public schools$6,591
Hunterdon County$1,620
Town of Union$1,003
Union average$10,880

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Union, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (99.66%).
