The Fair Share Report

200 Pine Ave

Salem, NJ 08079

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

≈ $179,235

Likely range $129,482 – $218,401, from 12 comparable Salem sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,318 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

49.82%

The state's official measure of how far Salem assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $179,235 home should be assessed near $89,295.
