The Fair Share Report

20 Bolans Ct

Berkeley, NJ 08087

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

≈ $284,484

Likely range $247,923 – $333,048, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $284,484 home should be assessed near $150,634.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$105,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $45,334 below what the ratio math suggests (30.1%).

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

$2.590 per $100 assessed

$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%

This home's own bill implies $2.353 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$2,477/yr
Public schools$1,160
Ocean County$557
Town of Berkeley$760
Berkeley average$5,442

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Berkeley's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
