The Fair Share Report

18 Bennington Rd

Morris, NJ 07960

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

≈ $838,977

Likely range $640,052 – $978,525, from 12 comparable Morris sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.98%

The state's official measure of how far Morris assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $838,977 home should be assessed near $612,285.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$679,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $66,715 above what the ratio math suggests (10.9%).
