Berkeley, NJ 08721

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

≈ $596,056

Likely range $506,050 – $878,311, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,418 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 $596,056 home should be assessed near $315,612.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$308,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $7,112 below what the ratio math suggests (2.3%).
