The Fair Share Report

17 E Sunrise Rd

Upper, NJ 08226

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

≈ $571,485

Likely range $458,745 – $667,669, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,368 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.65%

The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $571,485 home should be assessed near $323,746.

$314,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $9,046 below what the ratio math suggests (2.8%).
