The Fair Share Report

7 Pine Ct

Westfield, NJ 07090

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

≈ $1,371,204

Likely range $1,239,727 – $1,619,509, from 12 comparable Westfield sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.48%

The state's official measure of how far Westfield assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,371,204 home should be assessed near $993,849.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$869,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $124,449 below what the ratio math suggests (12.5%).

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

$2.291 per $100 assessed

$1.428 Schools · 62% $0.455 County · 20% $0.409 Town · 18%

Westfield also levies a Special Improvement District charge inside its district boundaries — the county roll doesn't say which homes are in it, but a bill's "IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT" line does. District homes pay $2.396 per $100 all-in (+$0.105).

Step 5 · The bill

$19,927/yr
Public schools$12,415
Union County$3,956
Town of Westfield$3,556
Westfield average$18,940

Paying about right

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