Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $926,139 – $1,316,148, from 12 comparable Mendham sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Mendham assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,066,179 home should be assessed near $765,623.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $207,123 below what the ratio math suggests (27.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Mendham home
$1.661 Schools · 66% $0.302 County · 12% $0.563 Town · 22%

Paying about right
