The Fair Share Report

64 Fairfield Rd

Wayne, NJ 07400

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

≈ $592,337

Likely range $443,085 – $712,216, 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 $592,337 home should be assessed near $212,175.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$85,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $127,175 below what the ratio math suggests (59.9%).

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 $5.704 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$4,848/yr
Public schools$2,698
Passaic County$1,011
Town of Wayne$1,139
Wayne average$13,868

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Wayne pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
