The Fair Share Report

103 Elm Ave

Hackensack, NJ 07601

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

≈ $574,074

Likely range $528,797 – $657,120, from 12 comparable Hackensack sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,550 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

74.58%

The state's official measure of how far Hackensack assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $574,074 home should be assessed near $428,144.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$336,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $91,244 below what the ratio math suggests (21.3%).

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

$3.208 per $100 assessed

$1.457 Schools · 45% $0.291 County · 9% $1.460 Town · 46%

This home's own bill implies $3.950 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.
