The Fair Share Report

Hampton, NJ 07860

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

≈ $422,642

Likely range $371,172 – $473,825, from 12 comparable Hampton sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.94%

The state's official measure of how far Hampton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $422,642 home should be assessed near $223,747.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$323,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $99,753 above what the ratio math suggests (44.6%).

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

$3.494 per $100 assessed

$2.229 Schools · 64% $0.704 County · 20% $0.561 Town · 16%

Step 5 · The bill

$11,306/yr
Public schools$7,213
Sussex County$2,278
Town of Hampton$1,815
Hampton average$8,187

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
