The Fair Share Report

98 First Ave

Secaucus, NJ 07094

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

≈ $700,514

Likely range $640,956 – $758,410, from 12 comparable Secaucus sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

37.10%

The state's official measure of how far Secaucus assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $700,514 home should be assessed near $259,891.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$150,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $109,891 below what the ratio math suggests (42.3%).

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

$4.267 per $100 assessed

$1.462 Schools · 34% $0.853 County · 20% $1.952 Town · 46%

This home's own bill implies $4.101 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$6,152/yr
Public schools$2,108
Hudson County$1,230
Town of Secaucus$2,814

Paying about right
