The Fair Share Report

623 Devon St

Lacey, NJ 08731

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

≈ $460,755

Likely range $374,363 – $507,780, from 12 comparable Lacey sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

60.11%

The state's official measure of how far Lacey assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $460,755 home should be assessed near $276,960.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$199,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $77,360 below what the ratio math suggests (27.9%).

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

$2.735 per $100 assessed

$1.650 Schools · 60% $0.520 County · 19% $0.564 Town · 21%
