The Fair Share Report

101 Daniel Ave

Rutherford, NJ 07070

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

≈ $632,203

Likely range $514,967 – $735,401, from 12 comparable Rutherford sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

66.39%

The state's official measure of how far Rutherford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $632,203 home should be assessed near $419,720.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$402,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $17,120 below what the ratio math suggests (4.1%).

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

$3.199 per $100 assessed

$1.890 Schools · 59% $0.321 County · 10% $0.987 Town · 31%
