Property Tax Calculation
The New Jersey County Tax Boards Association is an organization dedicated to promoting fair and consistent property tax assessment practices in line with state constitutional standards. The association supports ongoing professional development by offering educational programs and resources tailored to individuals working in property assessment and related fields, including tax officials, assessors, appraisers, and administrative personnel.
Market Value
New Jersey determines the market value of real property “true value” for tax purposes based on the price a willing and informed buyer and seller would agree upon, typically as of October 1 of the pre-tax year. Assessments are guided by the principle of highest and best use and are established through analysis of comparable sales, property inspections, consideration of factors such as location, size, condition, market trends and the Table of Equalized Valuations.
Assessed Value
The assessed value is the value assigned to a property by a local tax assessor for taxation purposes. It is typically based on the property's market value and may be adjusted using the municipality's assessment ratio to reflect current market conditions. In New Jersey, the County Tax Boards Association requires that all real property be assessed at 100% of its market value. This assessed value is then used to determine the property's share of the total tax burden.
Exemptions and Taxable Value
Property tax exemptions are programs that reduce or eliminate property taxes for eligible individuals or properties. Qualification may be based on factors such as personal status (e.g., age, disability, or veteran status) or how the property is used (e.g., for nonprofit, educational, or religious purposes). Eligibility requirements and benefits vary by Division of Taxation.
Our information indicates that this property does not currently benefit from any exemptions or credits. Therefore, the taxable value is equal to the assessed value.
Special Taxing Districts
Municipalities in New Jersey may also levy additional special district taxes within defined geographic areas to fund specific services, such as fire protection, garbage collection, or local improvements.
This property is not taxed by special districts.
Property Tax
