Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $242,845 – $290,845, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,120 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $267,129 home should be assessed near $141,445.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $67,055 above what the ratio math suggests (47.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home
$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
This home's own bill implies $2.470 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Berkeley sale · assessed ÷ market

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (60.89%) — roughly $1,737/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
