The Fair Share Report

42 Hemlock Dr

Paramus, NJ 07652

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $960,725

Likely range $894,506 – $1,116,496, from 12 comparable Paramus sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,330 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

93.30%

The state's official measure of how far Paramus assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $960,725 home should be assessed near $896,356.
