The Fair Share Report

615 E Central Ave

Alpha, NJ 08865

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

≈ $604,539

Likely range $403,377 – $670,858, from 7 comparable Alpha sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 3,084 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

63.67%

The state's official measure of how far Alpha assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $604,539 home should be assessed near $384,910.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$232,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $152,610 below what the ratio math suggests (39.6%).
