The Fair Share Report

5 Easy St

Middle, NJ 08210

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

≈ $524,794

Likely range $494,942 – $614,758, from 12 comparable Middle sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,544 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

64.09%

The state's official measure of how far Middle assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $524,794 home should be assessed near $336,340.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$286,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $50,340 below what the ratio math suggests (15.0%).
