The Fair Share Report

12 Griners Ln

Fairfield, NJ 08302

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

≈ $265,000

Likely range $200,000 – $300,000, from 6 comparable Fairfield sales in the past 18 months.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

83.33%

The state's official measure of how far Fairfield assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $265,000 home should be assessed near $220,825.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$168,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $51,925 below what the ratio math suggests (23.5%).

$2.971 per $100 assessed

$1.447 Schools · 49% $1.029 County · 35% $0.495 Town · 17%
