The Fair Share Report

48 Troy Ave

Ewing, NJ 08045

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

≈ $282,324

Likely range $164,833 – $315,660, from 12 comparable Ewing sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,150 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

63.20%

The state's official measure of how far Ewing assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $282,324 home should be assessed near $178,429.

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,829 below what the ratio math suggests (2.7%).
