The Fair Share Report

3 Castries St

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $317,500

Likely range $290,000 – $386,892, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,328 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 $317,500 home should be assessed near $168,116.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$163,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $5,116 below what the ratio math suggests (3.0%).

$2.590 per $100 assessed

$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
