Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $658,712 – $799,535, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $710,545 home should be assessed near $402,524.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $149,876 above what the ratio math suggests (37.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Upper home
$1.649 Schools · 72% $0.331 County · 14% $0.323 Town · 14%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Upper sale · assessed ÷ market

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (65.15%) — roughly $3,452/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
