The Fair Share Report

181 Howland Ave

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

≈ $1,111,608

Likely range $953,151 – $1,359,870, 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 $1,111,608 home should be assessed near $1,037,130.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,031,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $5,230 below what the ratio math suggests (0.5%).

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%

Step 5 · The bill
