The Fair Share Report

92 Maple Ave

Dover, NJ 07885

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

≈ $467,534

Likely range $322,636 – $503,626, from 12 comparable Dover sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

61.38%

The state's official measure of how far Dover assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $467,534 home should be assessed near $286,972.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$199,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $87,872 below what the ratio math suggests (30.6%).

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

$3.489 per $100 assessed

$1.500 Schools · 43% $0.346 County · 10% $1.643 Town · 47%

Step 5 · The bill

$6,949/yr
Public schools$2,987
