The Fair Share Report

21 Wayside

Millburn, NJ 07078

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

≈ $1,093,476

Likely range $853,346 – $1,306,167, from 12 comparable Millburn sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

70.02%

The state's official measure of how far Millburn assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,093,476 home should be assessed near $765,652.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$715,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $50,652 below what the ratio math suggests (6.6%).
