Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $605,998 – $766,423, from 12 comparable Dumont 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 Dumont assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $675,940 home should be assessed near $644,238.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $3,138 below what the ratio math suggests (0.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Dumont home
$1.304 Schools · 56% $0.233 County · 10% $0.803 Town · 34%
This home's own bill implies $2.177 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 Dumont's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
