Kearny, NJ 07032

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

≈ $402,235

Likely range $351,500 – $427,847, from 12 comparable Kearny sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,036 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

16.08%

The state's official measure of how far Kearny assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $402,235 home should be assessed near $64,679.
