The Fair Share Report

473 E Rd

Middletown, NJ 07718

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

≈ $746,027

Likely range $664,303 – $928,334, from 12 comparable Middletown sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

98.35%

The state's official measure of how far Middletown assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $746,027 home should be assessed near $733,718.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$681,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $52,718 below what the ratio math suggests (7.2%).

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

$1.614 per $100 assessed

$0.990 Schools · 61% $0.195 County · 12% $0.429 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $1.478 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$10,063/yr
Public schools$6,173
Monmouth County$1,216
Town of Middletown$2,675
