Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $609,632 – $730,723, from 12 comparable Hazlet 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 Hazlet assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $668,530 home should be assessed near $598,134.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $7,866 above what the ratio math suggests (1.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Hazlet home
$1.274 Schools · 66% $0.222 County · 11% $0.436 Town · 23%
This home's own bill implies $1.826 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

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