The Fair Share Report

132 Stuart St

Paramus, NJ 07652

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

≈ $2,210,579

Likely range $2,160,062 – $2,341,576, from 12 comparable Paramus sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 4,458 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

93.30%

The state's official measure of how far Paramus assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,210,579 home should be assessed near $2,062,470.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$2,366,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $304,130 above what the ratio math suggests (14.7%).

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

$1.499 per $100 assessed

$0.709 Schools · 47% $0.241 County · 16% $0.549 Town · 37%

This home's own bill implies $1.448 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$16,211
Bergen County$5,510

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
