The Fair Share Report

24 Westervelt St

Wayne, NJ 07470

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

≈ $665,786

Likely range $501,447 – $706,831, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

35.82%

The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $665,786 home should be assessed near $238,485.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$153,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $84,985 below what the ratio math suggests (35.6%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home

$5.998 per $100 assessed

$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%

This home's own bill implies $5.835 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$8,957/yr
Public schools$4,984
Passaic County$1,868
Town of Wayne$2,104
Wayne average$13,868

Paying about right
