The Fair Share Report

136 Twenty Fourth 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

≈ $295,876

Likely range $236,789 – $495,433, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 726 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 $295,876 home should be assessed near $156,666.
