The Fair Share Report

295 Eastern Blvd

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

≈ $448,443

Likely range $360,707 – $547,106, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,687 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 $448,443 home should be assessed near $237,451.

$241,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,149 above what the ratio math suggests (1.7%).
