The Fair Share Report

50 Edinburgh 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

≈ $270,553

Likely range $240,219 – $363,418, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,031 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 $270,553 home should be assessed near $143,258.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$101,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $41,458 below what the ratio math suggests (28.9%).

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%

This home's own bill implies $2.344 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$2,387/yr
Public schools$1,118
Ocean County$536
Town of Berkeley$733

Paying about right
