The Fair Share Report

3 Applegate Ct

Cranbury, NJ 08512

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

≈ $1,575,422

Likely range $1,515,132 – $1,700,331, from 12 comparable Cranbury sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

68.53%

The state's official measure of how far Cranbury assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,575,422 home should be assessed near $1,079,637.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$987,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $92,637 below what the ratio math suggests (8.6%).

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

$1.835 per $100 assessed

$0.997 Schools · 54% $0.438 County · 24% $0.400 Town · 22%
