The Fair Share Report

239 Sylvan Ave

Gloucester, NJ 08030

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

≈ $455,503

Likely range $413,967 – $498,772, from 12 comparable Gloucester City sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.80%

The state's official measure of how far Gloucester City assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $455,503 home should be assessed near $258,726.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$287,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $28,974 above what the ratio math suggests (11.2%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Gloucester City home

$5.292 per $100 assessed

$1.323 Schools · 25% $0.921 County · 17% $3.048 Town · 58%

This home's own bill implies $4.833 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$13,905/yr
Public schools$3,476
Camden County$2,420
Town of Gloucester City$8,009
Gloucester City average$5,850

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Gloucester City, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (65.32%).
