The Fair Share Report

305 E 3rd Ave

Roselle, NJ 07203

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

≈ $501,376

Likely range $423,873 – $574,529, from 12 comparable Roselle sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

28.06%

The state's official measure of how far Roselle assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $501,376 home should be assessed near $140,686.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$119,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $20,786 below what the ratio math suggests (14.8%).

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

$9.146 per $100 assessed

$3.297 Schools · 36% $1.177 County · 13% $4.673 Town · 51%
