The Fair Share Report

555 Declaration Ln

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

≈ $355,520

Likely range $344,878 – $398,753, from 12 comparable Jackson sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,616 sq ft.

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 $355,520 home should be assessed near $353,387.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$641,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $288,113 above what the ratio math suggests (81.5%).

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

$1.386 per $100 assessed

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