The Fair Share Report

35 Keep St

Madison, NJ 07940

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

≈ $1,840,038

Likely range $1,125,604 – $2,244,690, from 12 comparable Madison sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

60.22%

The state's official measure of how far Madison assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,840,038 home should be assessed near $1,108,071.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$883,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $224,771 below what the ratio math suggests (20.3%).
