The Fair Share Report

6 Patrick Dr

Union, NJ 08867

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

≈ $542,427

Likely range $499,099 – $599,844, from 12 comparable Union sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

86.66%

The state's official measure of how far Union assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $542,427 home should be assessed near $470,067.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$474,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,833 above what the ratio math suggests (1.0%).

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

$2.196 per $100 assessed

$1.570 Schools · 72% $0.386 County · 18% $0.239 Town · 11%

This home's own bill implies $2.144 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$10,184/yr
Public schools$7,284
Hunterdon County$1,791
Town of Union$1,109
Union average$10,880

Paying about right

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