The Fair Share Report

44 Summit Ave

Hanover, NJ 07927

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

≈ $727,884

Likely range $606,401 – $827,098, 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 $727,884 home should be assessed near $505,079.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$391,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $113,879 below what the ratio math suggests (22.5%).

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%
