The Fair Share Report

321 Float Ave

Stafford, NJ 08050

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

≈ $392,034

Likely range $382,506 – $515,386, from 12 comparable Stafford sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,274 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

51.85%

The state's official measure of how far Stafford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $392,034 home should be assessed near $203,270.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$395,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $192,630 above what the ratio math suggests (94.8%).

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

$2.623 per $100 assessed

$1.048 Schools · 40% $0.603 County · 23% $0.972 Town · 37%

This home's own bill implies $1.205 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Step 5 · The bill

$4,771/yr
Public schools$1,906
Ocean County$1,097
Town of Stafford$1,768
Stafford average$7,775
