The Fair Share Report

11 Grenada Pl

Montclair, NJ 07042

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

≈ $1,369,924

Likely range $1,258,440 – $1,554,731, from 12 comparable Montclair sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $1,369,924 home should be assessed near $770,719.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$506,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $264,119 below what the ratio math suggests (34.3%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

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