The Fair Share Report

8A Kitchell Pl

Hanover, NJ 07981

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

≈ $661,092

Likely range $474,922 – $771,438, from 12 comparable Hanover sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

69.39%

The state's official measure of how far Hanover assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $661,092 home should be assessed near $458,732.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$320,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $138,632 below what the ratio math suggests (30.2%).

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

$2.051 per $100 assessed

$1.207 Schools · 59% $0.314 County · 15% $0.529 Town · 26%

Paying about right
