The Fair Share Report

651 Devon St

Kearny, NJ 07032

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

≈ $621,031

Likely range $507,740 – $707,524, from 12 comparable Kearny sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

16.08%

The state's official measure of how far Kearny assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $621,031 home should be assessed near $99,862.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$95,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,362 below what the ratio math suggests (4.4%).

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

$10.847 per $100 assessed

$5.124 Schools · 47% $1.917 County · 18% $3.806 Town · 35%

This home's own bill implies $10.586 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$10,110/yr
Public schools$4,776
Hudson County$1,787
Town of Kearny$3,547

Paying about right
