The Fair Share Report

23 Devon Dr

West Orange, NJ 07052

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

≈ $826,237

Likely range $640,775 – $929,109, from 12 comparable West Orange sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

99.99%

The state's official measure of how far West Orange assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $826,237 home should be assessed near $826,154.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$682,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $144,054 below what the ratio math suggests (17.4%).

$2.626 per $100 assessed

$1.628 Schools · 62% $0.300 County · 11% $0.697 Town · 27%
