The Fair Share Report

165 Ford St

Wayne, NJ 07470

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

≈ $599,836

Likely range $525,432 – $645,504, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

35.82%

The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $599,836 home should be assessed near $214,861.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$128,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $86,161 below what the ratio math suggests (40.1%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home

$5.998 per $100 assessed

$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%

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.
