Netcong, NJ 07852

≈ $460,000

Likely range $405,000 – $567,825, from 12 comparable Netcong sales in the past 18 months.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

69.53%

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Netcong pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
