Berkeley, NJ 08721

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

≈ $401,091

Likely range $325,645 – $519,303, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,588 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 $401,091 home should be assessed near $212,378.
