The Fair Share Report

327 Codrington Pl

Bound Brook, NJ 08805

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

≈ $491,818

Likely range $483,510 – $560,832, from 12 comparable Bound Brook sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,623 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

93.26%

The state's official measure of how far Bound Brook assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $491,818 home should be assessed near $458,669.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$632,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $173,831 above what the ratio math suggests (37.9%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Bound Brook home

$2.206 per $100 assessed

$1.107 Schools · 50% $0.345 County · 16% $0.753 Town · 34%

This home's own bill implies $1.700 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Step 5 · The bill

$10,753/yr
Public schools$5,398
Somerset County$1,682
Town of Bound Brook$3,672
