The Fair Share Report

38 Tomahawk Path

Ringwood, NJ 07456

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

≈ $536,476

Likely range $443,420 – $585,120, from 12 comparable Ringwood sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

57.24%

The state's official measure of how far Ringwood assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $536,476 home should be assessed near $307,079.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$300,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $7,079 below what the ratio math suggests (2.3%).

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

$4.259 per $100 assessed

$2.546 Schools · 60% $0.780 County · 18% $0.933 Town · 22%

Step 5 · The bill

$12,777/yr
