Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $1,417,387 – $2,064,256, from 12 comparable Paramus 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 Paramus assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,925,756 home should be assessed near $1,796,730.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $247,730 below what the ratio math suggests (13.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Paramus home
$0.709 Schools · 47% $0.241 County · 16% $0.549 Town · 37%
This home's own bill implies $0.597 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

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