The Fair Share Report

68 Whitmore Dr

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $251,600

Likely range $244,384 – $274,809, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 953 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

52.95%

The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $251,600 home should be assessed near $133,222.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$188,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $54,878 above what the ratio math suggests (41.2%).

$2.590 per $100 assessed

$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
