The Fair Share Report

591 Colfax Rd

Wayne, NJ 07470

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

≈ $706,036

Likely range $530,710 – $745,877, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

35.82%

The state's official measure of how far Wayne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $706,036 home should be assessed near $252,902.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$161,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $91,102 below what the ratio math suggests (36.0%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Wayne home

$5.998 per $100 assessed

$3.337 Schools · 56% $1.251 County · 21% $1.409 Town · 23%

This home's own bill implies $5.843 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$9,455/yr
Public schools$5,261
Passaic County$1,972
Town of Wayne$2,221
Wayne average$13,868

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Wayne's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
