The Fair Share Report

310 E Rd

Middletown, NJ 07718

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

≈ $462,702

Likely range $403,960 – $549,844, from 12 comparable Middletown sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 918 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

98.35%

The state's official measure of how far Middletown assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $462,702 home should be assessed near $455,067.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$388,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $66,167 below what the ratio math suggests (14.5%).

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

$1.614 per $100 assessed

$0.990 Schools · 61% $0.195 County · 12% $0.429 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $1.427 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
