The Fair Share Report

44 E Shore Dr

Hampton, NJ 07860

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

≈ $339,200

Likely range $310,615 – $412,189, from 12 comparable Hampton sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,166 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.94%

The state's official measure of how far Hampton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $339,200 home should be assessed near $179,572.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$331,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $151,728 above what the ratio math suggests (84.5%).
