The Fair Share Report

36 Summit Dr

Wantage, NJ 07461

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

≈ $461,916

Likely range $400,306 – $481,105, from 12 comparable Wantage sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,132 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

64.60%

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Wantage pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
