The Fair Share Report

38 Gates Pl

Wayne, NJ 07470

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

≈ $1,198,504

Likely range $1,027,691 – $1,474,595, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 4,005 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

35.82%

The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,198,504 home should be assessed near $429,304.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$510,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $81,196 above what the ratio math suggests (18.9%).

$5.998 per $100 assessed

$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Wayne, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (41.19%).
