Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $2,122,130 – $2,486,551, from 12 comparable Closter 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 Closter assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,287,728 home should be assessed near $1,969,276.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $91,424 above what the ratio math suggests (4.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Closter home
$1.285 Schools · 62% $0.239 County · 12% $0.547 Town · 26%
This home's own bill implies $1.861 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

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