The Fair Share Report

90 E Spring St

Somerville, NJ 08876

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.

≈ $544,964

Likely range $500,247 – $634,737, from 12 comparable Somerville sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,608 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

58.80%
