Hamilton, NJ 08690

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.

Likely range $420,489 – $620,057, from 12 comparable Hamilton sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,164 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
