Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $621,040 – $865,648, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $695,629 home should be assessed near $368,336.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $231,664 above what the ratio math suggests (62.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home
$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
This home's own bill implies $2.548 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (60.89%) — roughly $6,000/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
