The Fair Share Report

265 Berkeley Rd

Riveredge, NJ 07661

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

≈ $918,449

Likely range $800,809 – $1,056,505, from 12 comparable River Edge sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

92.90%

The state's official measure of how far River Edge assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $918,449 home should be assessed near $853,239.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,071,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $218,561 above what the ratio math suggests (25.6%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every River Edge home

$2.419 per $100 assessed

$1.523 Schools · 63% $0.229 County · 9% $0.666 Town · 28%

This home's own bill implies $2.310 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$24,759/yr
Public schools$15,595
Bergen County$2,345
Town of River Edge$6,819
River Edge average$16,339

Looks meaningfully over-assessed
