Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $712,284 – $958,860, from 12 comparable Lyndhurst sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Lyndhurst assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $863,538 home should be assessed near $751,364.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $36,464 below what the ratio math suggests (4.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Lyndhurst home
$1.090 Schools · 49% $0.247 County · 11% $0.887 Town · 40%
This home's own bill implies $2.103 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Lyndhurst's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
