The Fair Share Report

32 Locust Dr

Summit, NJ 07901

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

≈ $841,195

Likely range $719,409 – $950,617, from 12 comparable Summit sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,260 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

30.81%

The state's official measure of how far Summit assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $841,195 home should be assessed near $259,172.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$290,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $31,528 above what the ratio math suggests (12.2%).

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

$4.470 per $100 assessed

$2.335 Schools · 52% $1.092 County · 24% $1.043 Town · 23%

Summit also levies a Special Improvement District charge inside its district boundaries — the county roll doesn't say which homes are in it, but a bill's "IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT" line does. District homes pay $4.654 per $100 all-in (+$0.184).

Step 5 · The bill

$12,997/yr
Public schools$6,789
Union County$3,175
Town of Summit$3,033
Summit average$19,697

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Summit, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (35.43%).
