The Fair Share Report

157 Split Rock Rd

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

≈ $941,205

Likely range $815,241 – $1,006,273, from 12 comparable Paramus sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $941,205 home should be assessed near $878,144.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$989,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $110,856 above what the ratio math suggests (12.6%).

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 $1.418 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

A touch high — worth watching

This home's ratio sits above most of Paramus, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (100.00%).
