The Fair Share Report

18 Chicopee Dr

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

≈ $731,514

Likely range $562,338 – $795,561, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,082 sq ft.

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 $731,514 home should be assessed near $262,028.

$268,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $6,772 above what the ratio math suggests (2.6%).
