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

≈ $716,553

Likely range $636,588 – $735,839, from 12 comparable Hackensack sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $716,553 home should be assessed near $534,405.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$403,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $131,305 below what the ratio math suggests (24.6%).
