Byram, NJ 07871

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

≈ $287,748

Likely range $171,616 – $390,625, from 12 comparable Byram sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 750 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

58.12%

The state's official measure of how far Byram assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $287,748 home should be assessed near $167,239.
