The Fair Share Report

50 Wolf Pl

Hillside, NJ 07205

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

≈ $739,955

Likely range $703,872 – $899,974, from 12 comparable Hillside sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

24.33%

The state's official measure of how far Hillside assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $739,955 home should be assessed near $180,031.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$190,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $9,969 above what the ratio math suggests (5.5%).

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

$8.899 per $100 assessed

$3.447 Schools · 39% $1.407 County · 16% $4.044 Town · 45%
