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

≈ $517,485

Likely range $439,067 – $536,936, from 12 comparable Wayne sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,068 sq ft.

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 $517,485 home should be assessed near $185,363.

$154,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $30,563 below what the ratio math suggests (16.5%).
