The Fair Share Report

99 Old Hook Rd

Closter, NJ 07020

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

≈ $2,016,033

Likely range $1,770,512 – $2,216,268, from 12 comparable Closter sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

86.08%

The state's official measure of how far Closter assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $2,016,033 home should be assessed near $1,735,401.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$1,595,800

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $139,601 below what the ratio math suggests (8.0%).

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

$2.071 per $100 assessed

$1.285 Schools · 62% $0.239 County · 12% $0.547 Town · 26%

This home's own bill implies $1.789 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
