The Fair Share Report

Cresskill, NJ 07626

The town adjusts for market price changes once a year — but only based on the average price change of all homes in the area. This report checks whether this house's assessment kept pace.

This home's payments are about right

It sits inside Cresskill's normal range — market price changes haven't singled it out. No case for a tax appeal.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $1,428,089

Likely range $1,210,332 – $1,641,731, from 12 comparable Cresskill sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

78.85%

The state's official measure of how far Cresskill assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,428,089 home should be assessed near $1,126,048.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,237,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $111,452 above what the ratio math suggests (9.9%).

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

$2.268 per $100 assessed

$1.256 Schools · 55% $0.262 County · 12% $0.750 Town · 33%

This home's own bill implies $2.034 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
