The Fair Share Report

52 Eugene Pl

Belleville, NJ 07109

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

≈ $413,810

Likely range $340,784 – $474,000, from 12 comparable Belleville sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 869 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

59.13%

The state's official measure of how far Belleville assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $413,810 home should be assessed near $244,686.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$202,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $41,886 below what the ratio math suggests (17.1%).

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

$4.156 per $100 assessed

$1.652 Schools · 40% $0.541 County · 13% $1.963 Town · 47%

This home's own bill implies $3.860 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$7,828/yr
Public schools$3,111
Essex County$1,019
Town of Belleville$3,697
