The Fair Share Report

25 Vail St

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $261,629

Likely range $235,000 – $294,000, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,124 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $261,629 home should be assessed near $138,533.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$173,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $34,567 above what the ratio math suggests (25.0%).

A touch high — worth watching
