The Fair Share Report

34 Jill Ave

Upper, NJ 08223

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

≈ $797,733

Likely range $692,623 – $849,736, from 12 comparable Upper sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 3,471 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 $797,733 home should be assessed near $451,916.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$453,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $1,084 above what the ratio math suggests (0.2%).
