The Fair Share Report

9 Esher Ct

Berkeley, NJ 08757

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

≈ $347,160

Likely range $323,077 – $425,000, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,440 sq ft.

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 $347,160 home should be assessed near $183,821.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$154,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $29,021 below what the ratio math suggests (15.8%).
