The Fair Share Report

370 De Wolf Pl

Hackensack, NJ 07602

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

≈ $750,246

Likely range $540,306 – $840,467, from 12 comparable Hackensack sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

74.58%

The state's official measure of how far Hackensack assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $750,246 home should be assessed near $559,533.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$413,700

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $145,833 below what the ratio math suggests (26.1%).
