The Fair Share Report

3 Devonshire Way

Jackson, NJ 08527

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

≈ $654,138

Likely range $534,518 – $665,605, from 12 comparable Jackson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

99.40%

The state's official measure of how far Jackson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $654,138 home should be assessed near $650,213.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$684,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $34,587 above what the ratio math suggests (5.3%).

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

$1.386 per $100 assessed

$0.781 Schools · 56% $0.320 County · 23% $0.284 Town · 21%

Step 5 · The bill

$9,902/yr
Public schools$5,584
Ocean County$2,288
Town of Jackson$2,030
Jackson average$9,047

Looks meaningfully over-assessed

Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (100.00%) — roughly $479/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
