The Fair Share Report

64 Beech St

Rutherford, NJ 07070

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

≈ $699,553

Likely range $593,814 – $796,098, from 12 comparable Rutherford sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,632 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

66.39%

The state's official measure of how far Rutherford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $699,553 home should be assessed near $464,433.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$390,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $74,433 below what the ratio math suggests (16.0%).

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

$3.199 per $100 assessed

$1.890 Schools · 59% $0.321 County · 10% $0.987 Town · 31%

This home's own bill implies $3.136 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$12,230/yr
Public schools$7,228
Bergen County$1,228
Town of Rutherford$3,775
Rutherford average$14,060
