The Fair Share Report

515 Devon St

Kearny, NJ 07032

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

≈ $552,848

Likely range $510,982 – $672,928, from 12 comparable Kearny sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

16.08%

The state's official measure of how far Kearny assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $552,848 home should be assessed near $88,898.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$87,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $1,098 below what the ratio math suggests (1.2%).
