The Fair Share Report

12A Main St

Helmetta, NJ 08828

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

≈ $488,013

Likely range $440,568 – $513,305, from 12 comparable Helmetta sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,624 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

55.50%

The state's official measure of how far Helmetta assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $488,013 home should be assessed near $270,847.
