The Fair Share Report
914 Anglesea Ave
Berkeley, NJ 08721
The town adjusts for market price changes once a year — but only based on the average price change of all homes in the area. This report checks whether this house's assessment kept pace.
A touch high — but not appeal-worthy
Above most of Berkeley, but below NJ's legal appeal line (60.89%), where a case becomes winnable.
Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $362,458 – $498,446, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Berkeley assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $453,201 home should be assessed near $239,970.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $28,430 above what the ratio math suggests (11.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home
$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%
Step 5 · The bill
