The Fair Share Report

5 Rye Ct

Jackson, NJ 08527

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

≈ $384,334

Likely range $364,735 – $437,817, from 12 comparable Jackson sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,554 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

99.40%

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $56,772 above what the ratio math suggests (14.9%).
