The Fair Share Report

245 Spring Valley Rd

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

≈ $877,877

Likely range $758,894 – $925,915, from 12 comparable Paramus sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,669 sq ft.

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 $877,877 home should be assessed near $819,059.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$428,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $390,459 below what the ratio math suggests (47.7%).

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%

This home's own bill implies $2.160 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Paramus pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
