Union, NJ 08809

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

≈ $270,939

Likely range $236,000 – $299,999, from 12 comparable Union sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,065 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

86.66%
