The Fair Share Report

558 Howell Ave

Ewing, NJ 08628

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

≈ $306,487

Likely range $254,393 – $363,394, from 12 comparable Ewing sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

63.20%

The state's official measure of how far Ewing assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $306,487 home should be assessed near $193,700.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$138,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $54,900 below what the ratio math suggests (28.3%).

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

$4.051 per $100 assessed

$2.100 Schools · 52% $0.894 County · 22% $1.057 Town · 26%

Step 5 · The bill

$5,623/yr
Public schools$2,915

Paying about right
