Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $1,097,663 – $1,441,707, from 12 comparable Cresskill sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Cresskill assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,210,525 home should be assessed near $954,499.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $5,701 above what the ratio math suggests (0.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Cresskill home
$1.256 Schools · 55% $0.262 County · 12% $0.750 Town · 33%
This home's own bill implies $2.010 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Cresskill's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
