The Fair Share Report

508 Smith Ct

Edgewater, NJ 07465

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

≈ $516,279

Likely range $439,551 – $621,590, from 12 comparable Edgewater sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

89.49%

The state's official measure of how far Edgewater assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $516,279 home should be assessed near $462,018.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$458,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,018 below what the ratio math suggests (0.9%).

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

$1.645 per $100 assessed

$0.714 Schools · 43% $0.247 County · 15% $0.683 Town · 42%

This home's own bill implies $1.587 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$7,269/yr
Public schools$3,157
Bergen County$1,092
Town of Edgewater$3,020

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Edgewater's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
