The Fair Share Report

7 Rupell Rd

Clinton, NJ 08809

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

≈ $538,176

Likely range $466,952 – $618,951, from 11 comparable Clinton sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

87.85%

The state's official measure of how far Clinton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $538,176 home should be assessed near $472,788.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$444,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $28,588 below what the ratio math suggests (6.0%).

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

$2.948 per $100 assessed

$1.757 Schools · 60% $0.385 County · 13% $0.806 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $2.764 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$12,278/yr
Public schools$7,318
Hunterdon County$1,604
Town of Clinton$3,357
Clinton average$12,962

Paying about right
