The Fair Share Report

84 Ackerson St

Hackensack, NJ 07601

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

≈ $271,846

Likely range $251,053 – $291,496, from 12 comparable Hackensack sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

74.58%

The state's official measure of how far Hackensack assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $271,846 home should be assessed near $202,743.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$102,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $100,243 below what the ratio math suggests (49.4%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

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