The Fair Share Report

172 Post Ave

Lyndhurst, NJ 07071

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

≈ $551,207

Likely range $467,512 – $601,263, from 12 comparable Lyndhurst sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

87.01%

The state's official measure of how far Lyndhurst assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $551,207 home should be assessed near $479,605.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$484,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $5,295 above what the ratio math suggests (1.1%).

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

$2.225 per $100 assessed

$1.090 Schools · 49% $0.247 County · 11% $0.887 Town · 40%

This home's own bill implies $2.128 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$10,320/yr
Public schools$5,058
Bergen County$1,146
Town of Lyndhurst$4,116
