The Fair Share Report

39 Cross Rd

Hanover, NJ 07950

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

≈ $761,311

Likely range $681,448 – $832,859, from 12 comparable Hanover sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

69.39%

The state's official measure of how far Hanover assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $761,311 home should be assessed near $528,274.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$394,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $134,274 below what the ratio math suggests (25.4%).

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

$2.051 per $100 assessed

$1.207 Schools · 59% $0.314 County · 15% $0.529 Town · 26%
