The Fair Share Report

21 Malcolm St

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

≈ $525,949

Likely range $435,452 – $598,811, 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 $525,949 home should be assessed near $383,838.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$209,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $174,438 below what the ratio math suggests (45.4%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Morris pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
