The Fair Share Report

66 County Rd

Demarest, NJ 07627

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

≈ $1,998,557

Likely range $1,755,110 – $2,179,596, from 12 comparable Demarest sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

101.41%

The state's official measure of how far Demarest assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,998,557 home should be assessed near $2,026,737.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$2,262,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $235,563 above what the ratio math suggests (11.6%).

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

$1.805 per $100 assessed

$1.149 Schools · 64% $0.219 County · 12% $0.438 Town · 24%
