The Fair Share Report

28 Maple Ln

Wayne, NJ 07508

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

≈ $541,981

Likely range $430,963 – $618,656, 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 $541,981 home should be assessed near $194,138.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$94,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $99,538 below what the ratio math suggests (51.3%).

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%

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Wayne pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
