The Fair Share Report

3 Applegate Ln

Plumsted, NJ 08022

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

≈ $451,453

Likely range $391,263 – $471,553, from 12 comparable Plumsted sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,416 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

57.87%

The state's official measure of how far Plumsted assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $451,453 home should be assessed near $261,256.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$404,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $142,744 above what the ratio math suggests (54.6%).

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

$3.148 per $100 assessed

$2.255 Schools · 72% $0.543 County · 17% $0.351 Town · 11%

This home's own bill implies $1.503 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.
