The Fair Share Report

765 Third St

Dunellen, NJ 08873

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

≈ $540,429

Likely range $453,250 – $622,130, from 12 comparable Dunellen sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

97.02%

The state's official measure of how far Dunellen assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $540,429 home should be assessed near $524,324.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$569,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $45,376 above what the ratio math suggests (8.7%).
