The Fair Share Report

6 E Raphael Ln

Howell, NJ 07727

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

≈ $842,145

Likely range $726,191 – $914,303, from 12 comparable Howell sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.01%

The state's official measure of how far Howell assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $842,145 home should be assessed near $816,965.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$827,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $10,535 above what the ratio math suggests (1.3%).

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

$1.659 per $100 assessed

$1.121 Schools · 68% $0.218 County · 13% $0.320 Town · 19%

This home's own bill implies $1.590 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$13,160/yr
Public schools$8,892
Monmouth County$1,729
Town of Howell$2,538
Howell average$9,883

Paying about right

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