The Fair Share Report

31 Frederick Dr

Berkeley, NJ 08732

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

≈ $420,532

Likely range $378,564 – $482,890, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,582 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 $420,532 home should be assessed near $222,672.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$255,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,328 above what the ratio math suggests (14.5%).
