The Fair Share Report

409 Spring St

Hillside, NJ 07650

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

≈ $468,983

Likely range $291,532 – $561,393, from 12 comparable Hillside sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,522 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

24.33%

The state's official measure of how far Hillside assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $468,983 home should be assessed near $114,104.
