Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $499,200 – $593,869, from 12 comparable Bernards sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,456 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Bernards assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $560,560 home should be assessed near $533,205.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $55,395 above what the ratio math suggests (10.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Bernards home
$1.095 Schools · 65% $0.308 County · 18% $0.285 Town · 17%
This home's own bill implies $1.644 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Bernards sale · assessed ÷ market

A touch high — worth watching
This home's ratio sits above most of Bernards, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (100.00%).
