The Fair Share Report

101 Haddon Pl

Montclair, NJ 07043

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

≈ $1,152,896

Likely range $850,573 – $1,187,186, from 12 comparable Montclair sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,918 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.26%

The state's official measure of how far Montclair assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,152,896 home should be assessed near $648,619.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$640,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $8,219 below what the ratio math suggests (1.3%).
