The Fair Share Report

125 Cornelia St

E Rutherford, NJ 07073

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

≈ $600,554

Likely range $509,628 – $627,308, from 12 comparable East Rutherford sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

102.14%

The state's official measure of how far East Rutherford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $600,554 home should be assessed near $613,406.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$469,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $144,306 below what the ratio math suggests (23.5%).

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

$1.608 per $100 assessed

$0.926 Schools · 58% $0.236 County · 15% $0.446 Town · 28%

This home's own bill implies $1.556 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$4,204
