The Fair Share Report

79 Washington Pl

E Rutherford, NJ 07481

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

≈ $604,809

Likely range $559,861 – $712,105, from 12 comparable East Rutherford sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

102.14%

The state's official measure of how far East Rutherford assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $604,809 home should be assessed near $617,752.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$403,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $213,952 below what the ratio math suggests (34.6%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every East Rutherford home

$1.608 per $100 assessed

$0.926 Schools · 58% $0.236 County · 15% $0.446 Town · 28%

This home's own bill implies $1.562 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

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