The Fair Share Report

5 Mitchell Ct

Jackson, NJ 08527

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

≈ $828,137

Likely range $721,156 – $993,869, from 12 comparable Jackson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

99.40%

The state's official measure of how far Jackson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $828,137 home should be assessed near $823,168.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$958,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $135,432 above what the ratio math suggests (16.5%).

$1.386 per $100 assessed

$0.781 Schools · 56% $0.320 County · 23% $0.284 Town · 21%
