12 Nelson Ct

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $366,495

Likely range $333,133 – $463,826, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,580 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $7,759 below what the ratio math suggests (4.0%).
