The Fair Share Report

8 E 27th St

Avalon, NJ 08033

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

≈ $3,357,750

Likely range $2,655,776 – $3,853,404, from 12 comparable Avalon sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,299 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

54.28%

The state's official measure of how far Avalon assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $3,357,750 home should be assessed near $1,822,587.

$2,332,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $509,413 above what the ratio math suggests (28.0%).
