The Fair Share Report

77 Yardarm Ct

Berkeley, NJ 07067

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

≈ $337,082

Likely range $296,593 – $387,546, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $337,082 home should be assessed near $178,485.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$363,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $184,815 above what the ratio math suggests (103.5%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home

$2.590 per $100 assessed

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

Step 5 · The bill

$9,409/yr
Public schools$4,407

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
