The Fair Share Report

16 Berkeley Rd

Millburn, NJ 07041

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

≈ $1,762,732

Likely range $1,504,394 – $1,931,268, from 12 comparable Millburn sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

70.02%

The state's official measure of how far Millburn assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,762,732 home should be assessed near $1,234,265.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$880,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $353,465 below what the ratio math suggests (28.6%).
