Is your assessment too high?

New Jersey checks your assessment against the town's average ratio (72.20% for 2026). If your assessment is more than 83.03% of your home's value, you may have an appeal case.

Use the value as of October 1, 2025 (the date 2026 assessments are based on). Your assessment is on your tax bill or at the town tax assessor's office.

Appeal deadline

April 1, 2027 (May 1, 2027 if Frelinghuysen Township does a town-wide revaluation for 2027), or 45 days after assessment notices are mailed if that's later.

File with the Warren County Board of Taxation. The petition has to arrive by the deadline; a postmark isn't enough. Homes assessed over $1 million can go straight to the Tax Court.
