The Fair Share Report

4 Second St

Lakehurst, NJ 08733

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

≈ $251,676

Likely range $222,312 – $301,497, from 12 comparable Lakehurst sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

85.72%

The state's official measure of how far Lakehurst assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $251,676 home should be assessed near $215,737.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$172,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $43,637 below what the ratio math suggests (20.2%).
