The Fair Share Report

6 Devonald Dr

Bethlehem, NJ 08802

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

≈ $734,072

Likely range $641,431 – $845,795, from 12 comparable Bethlehem sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

107.41%

The state's official measure of how far Bethlehem assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $734,072 home should be assessed near $788,467.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$680,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $108,167 below what the ratio math suggests (13.7%).

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

$2.020 per $100 assessed

$1.404 Schools · 69% $0.316 County · 16% $0.301 Town · 15%
