The Fair Share Report

394 Simons Ave

Hackensack, NJ 07601

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

≈ $522,922

Likely range $487,398 – $686,131, 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 $522,922 home should be assessed near $389,995.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$365,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $24,895 below what the ratio math suggests (6.4%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Hackensack home

$3.208 per $100 assessed

$1.457 Schools · 45% $0.291 County · 9% $1.460 Town · 46%

This home's own bill implies $3.141 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$5,208
