The Fair Share Report

3 E River Rd

Rumson, NJ 07070

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

≈ $2,209,548

Likely range $1,921,267 – $2,617,900, from 12 comparable Rumson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

96.70%

The state's official measure of how far Rumson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,209,548 home should be assessed near $2,136,633.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,754,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $382,033 below what the ratio math suggests (17.9%).
