The Fair Share Report

75 3rd Ave

Newark, NJ 07104

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

≈ $425,281

Likely range $357,602 – $591,357, from 12 comparable Newark sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

40.69%

The state's official measure of how far Newark assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $425,281 home should be assessed near $173,047.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$98,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $74,747 below what the ratio math suggests (43.2%).

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

$3.999 per $100 assessed

$1.162 Schools · 29% $0.519 County · 13% $2.318 Town · 58%

Step 5 · The bill

$3,931/yr
Public schools$1,142

Keep quiet and enjoy it

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