Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $381,303 – $441,548, from 12 comparable Independence sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Independence assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $414,192 home should be assessed near $245,326.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $1,526 below what the ratio math suggests (0.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Independence home
$2.295 Schools · 60% $0.873 County · 23% $0.627 Town · 17%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Independence sale · assessed ÷ market

A touch high — worth watching
This home's ratio sits above most of Independence, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (68.11%).
