The Fair Share Report

10 Luke Ct

Upper, NJ 08230

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

≈ $429,477

Likely range $338,243 – $473,684, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,764 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.65%

The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $429,477 home should be assessed near $243,299.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$335,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $92,201 above what the ratio math suggests (37.9%).

$2.303 per $100 assessed

$1.649 Schools · 72% $0.331 County · 14% $0.323 Town · 14%
