The Fair Share Report

601 E Rd

Middletown, NJ 07748

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

≈ $706,479

Likely range $609,921 – $792,311, from 12 comparable Middletown sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

98.35%

The state's official measure of how far Middletown assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $706,479 home should be assessed near $694,822.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$665,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $29,722 below what the ratio math suggests (4.3%).

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

$1.614 per $100 assessed

$0.990 Schools · 61% $0.195 County · 12% $0.429 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $1.409 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$9,373/yr
Public schools$5,749
Monmouth County$1,132
Town of Middletown$2,491
