The Fair Share Report

625 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

≈ $881,705

Likely range $734,712 – $975,603, 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 $881,705 home should be assessed near $867,157.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$779,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $87,457 below what the ratio math suggests (10.1%).

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 $1.486 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$7,105
Monmouth County$1,400
