The town adjusts for market price changes once a year — but only based on the average price change of all homes in the area. This report checks whether this house's assessment kept pace.

A touch high — but not appeal-worthy

Above most of Wayne, but below NJ's legal appeal line (41.19%), where a case becomes winnable.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $641,200

Likely range $632,318 – $900,458, 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%

$312,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $82,522 above what the ratio math suggests (35.9%).
