Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $2,546,401 – $3,413,016, from 12 comparable Rumson sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 4,712 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Rumson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,835,765 home should be assessed near $2,742,185.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $336,485 below what the ratio math suggests (12.3%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Rumson home
$0.594 Schools · 57% $0.210 County · 20% $0.245 Town · 23%
This home's own bill implies $0.919 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

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