The Fair Share Report

27 Laytham Dr

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

≈ $691,480

Likely range $651,391 – $713,726, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,615 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

35.82%

$299,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $51,412 above what the ratio math suggests (20.8%).
