The Fair Share Report

38 Ray Ct

Bedminster, NJ 08873

The town adjusts for market price changes once a year — but only based on the average price change of all homes in the area. This report checks whether this house's assessment kept pace.

Good news — this home pays less than its share

Its assessment sits low relative to what homes like it actually sell for. An appeal would only invite a fresh look at a number working in the owner's favor.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $473,118

Likely range $442,984 – $499,985, from 12 comparable Bedminster sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

99.24%

The state's official measure of how far Bedminster assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $473,118 home should be assessed near $469,522.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$361,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $108,522 below what the ratio math suggests (23.1%).

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

$1.204 per $100 assessed

$0.618 Schools · 51% $0.301 County · 25% $0.285 Town · 24%

This home's own bill implies $1.123 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
