The Fair Share Report

92 Cedar Run Rd

Berkeley, NJ 08825

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

≈ $318,611

Likely range $278,986 – $392,844, from 12 comparable Berkeley sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $318,611 home should be assessed near $168,705.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$319,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $150,595 above what the ratio math suggests (89.3%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Berkeley home

$2.590 per $100 assessed

$1.213 Schools · 47% $0.582 County · 22% $0.795 Town · 31%

Step 5 · The bill

$8,270/yr

Looks meaningfully over-assessed

Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (60.89%) — roughly $3,900/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
