The Fair Share Report

153 Ryerson Ave

Wayne, NJ 07470

Likely range $541,966 – $720,253, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,404 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Wayne pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
