The Fair Share Report

628 Second Ave

Lyndhurst, NJ 07071

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

≈ $954,833

Likely range $884,639 – $1,113,779, from 12 comparable Lyndhurst sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,715 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

87.01%

The state's official measure of how far Lyndhurst assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $954,833 home should be assessed near $830,800.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$715,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $115,600 below what the ratio math suggests (13.9%).

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

$2.225 per $100 assessed

$1.090 Schools · 49% $0.247 County · 11% $0.887 Town · 40%

This home's own bill implies $2.116 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
