The Fair Share Report

3768 First Ave

Avalon, NJ 08053

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

≈ $2,337,829

Likely range $2,035,195 – $3,190,238, from 12 comparable Avalon sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

54.28%

The state's official measure of how far Avalon assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,337,829 home should be assessed near $1,268,974.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,863,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $594,426 above what the ratio math suggests (46.8%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Avalon home

$0.607 per $100 assessed

$0.032 Schools · 5% $0.313 County · 52% $0.262 Town · 43%

A touch high — worth watching
