The Fair Share Report

1 River Rd

Palmyra, NJ 08065

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

≈ $247,169

Likely range $184,936 – $318,382, from 12 comparable Palmyra sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

54.58%

The state's official measure of how far Palmyra assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $247,169 home should be assessed near $134,905.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$34,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $100,105 below what the ratio math suggests (74.2%).

$4.588 per $100 assessed

$2.549 Schools · 56% $0.578 County · 13% $1.461 Town · 32%

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Palmyra pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
