Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $487,254 – $534,994, from 12 comparable Jackson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Jackson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $511,069 home should be assessed near $508,003.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,197 above what the ratio math suggests (6.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Jackson home
$0.781 Schools · 56% $0.320 County · 23% $0.284 Town · 21%
Step 5 · The bill

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (100.00%) — roughly $446/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
