The Fair Share Report

5 Crescent Dr

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $299,120

Likely range $261,232 – $398,827, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,360 sq ft.

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 $299,120 home should be assessed near $158,384.

$212,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $53,616 above what the ratio math suggests (33.9%).
