The Fair Share Report

7 Mitchell Ave

Franklin, NJ 07422

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

≈ $341,817

Likely range $273,223 – $425,946, from 12 comparable Franklin sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

89.85%

The state's official measure of how far Franklin assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $341,817 home should be assessed near $307,123.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$253,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $54,123 below what the ratio math suggests (17.6%).

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

$2.515 per $100 assessed

$1.327 Schools · 53% $0.422 County · 17% $0.765 Town · 30%

This home's own bill implies $2.264 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$5,729/yr
Public schools$3,024
Sussex County$962

Paying about right

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