Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $1,323,378 – $2,081,216, from 12 comparable Rumson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Rumson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,934,336 home should be assessed near $1,870,503.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $467,303 below what the ratio math suggests (25.0%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Rumson home
$0.594 Schools · 57% $0.210 County · 20% $0.245 Town · 23%
This home's own bill implies $0.944 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Rumson's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
