The Fair Share Report

7 Kime Ave

Wayne, NJ 07470

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

≈ $569,447

Likely range $453,915 – $692,134, 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 $569,447 home should be assessed near $203,976.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$133,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $70,876 below what the ratio math suggests (34.7%).

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 $5.810 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$7,733/yr
Public schools$4,303
Passaic County$1,613
Town of Wayne$1,817
Wayne average$13,868

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Wayne's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
