11 Berkeley Pl

Berkeley, NJ 08721

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

≈ $259,176

Likely range $235,588 – $293,676, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,068 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $259,176 home should be assessed near $137,234.

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $60,266 above what the ratio math suggests (43.9%).
