The Fair Share Report

38 Mill Rd

Morris, NJ 07950

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

≈ $649,250

Likely range $493,737 – $768,893, from 12 comparable Morris sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.98%

The state's official measure of how far Morris assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $649,250 home should be assessed near $473,823.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$357,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $116,323 below what the ratio math suggests (24.5%).
