The Fair Share Report

654 E 33rd St

Paterson, NJ 07513

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

≈ $499,188

Likely range $380,857 – $603,797, from 12 comparable Paterson sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

41.41%

The state's official measure of how far Paterson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $499,188 home should be assessed near $206,714.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$256,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $49,386 above what the ratio math suggests (23.9%).

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

$5.334 per $100 assessed

$1.307 Schools · 24% $1.048 County · 20% $2.980 Town · 56%

This home's own bill implies $0.737 per $100 — well off the general rate. That usually means the town revalued since the last bill.

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Paterson pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
