The Fair Share Report

114 Sprague Ave

Berkeley, NJ 08752

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

≈ $953,158

Likely range $670,583 – $1,194,515, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,784 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 $953,158 home should be assessed near $504,697.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$668,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $164,103 above what the ratio math suggests (32.5%).
