The numbers support an appeal
Even at the cautious end of the range, this home's ratio clears NJ's Chapter 123 line (100.00%) — roughly $3,487/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $816,426 – $1,039,452, from 12 comparable Paramus 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 Paramus assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $898,686 home should be assessed near $838,474.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $232,626 above what the ratio math suggests (27.7%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Paramus home
$0.709 Schools · 47% $0.241 County · 16% $0.549 Town · 37%
This home's own bill implies $1.401 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
