The Fair Share Report

417 St Thomas Dr

Berkeley, NJ 08751

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

≈ $246,571

Likely range $217,071 – $294,154, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $246,571 home should be assessed near $130,559.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$98,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,459 below what the ratio math suggests (24.9%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home

$2.590 per $100 assessed

$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%

Step 5 · The bill

$2,541/yr
Public schools$1,190
Ocean County$571
Town of Berkeley$780
Berkeley average$5,442

Paying about right
