The Fair Share Report

3 W Ventnor Ave

Upper, NJ 08093

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

≈ $778,198

Likely range $655,959 – $822,688, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 3,386 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

56.65%

The state's official measure of how far Upper assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $778,198 home should be assessed near $440,849.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$416,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $24,749 below what the ratio math suggests (5.6%).
