The Fair Share Report

5 Brookside Dr

Millburn, NJ 07041

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

≈ $1,230,778

Likely range $962,142 – $1,533,484, from 12 comparable Millburn sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

70.02%

The state's official measure of how far Millburn assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,230,778 home should be assessed near $861,791.
