General rate and effective rate in Belvidere
New Jersey publishes two rates for every municipality. The general tax rate, $3.302 per $100 in Belvidere, is the one applied to the assessed value on the bill: $300,000 assessed owes $9,906.00. The effective tax rate, $2.948 per $100, is "the general property tax adjusted by the municipality's equalization ratio", the rate on market value. Dividing one by the other puts Belvidere's assessments at about 89.28% of market value; the state median is 70.02%.
The effective rate is the fairer comparison between towns. On it Belvidere ranks 47th of 564, against 216th on the general rate, and sits $0.810 above the $2.140 median effective rate. At 89.28%, a $300,000 assessment corresponds to roughly $336,022 of market value.

These are assessed values, not sale prices: at 89.28% the $300,000 row is a property worth about $336,022. The last column is the difference from the same assessment at the $2.960 per $100 state median.

Appealing a Belvidere assessment
New Jersey appeals go to the Warren County Board of Taxation. The petition is due April 1, or May 1 in a year when Belvidere implemented a municipal-wide revaluation or reassessment (NJ Division of Taxation). Property assessed above $1,000,000 may go directly to the Tax Court, and a County Board judgment can be appealed to the Tax Court within 45 days. The Board tests the assessment against the common level range: the average ratio plus or minus 15%. Using the 89.28% ratio implied by the state's two rates, that range runs from about 75.89% to 102.67% of market value; the Director's official average ratio for Belvidere, which the County Board applies, can differ slightly.
