How the ratio works: New Jersey towns often assess below full market value. The average ratio (Director’s / Chapter 123) estimates what percent of true market value the town’s assessments represent. Implied equalized value ≈ assessed net ÷ (ratio ÷ 100). Example: assessed $187,600 at 55.89% ≈ $335,700 equalized. Tax bills still use assessed value × the general tax rate — not the equalized figure.

The stored sale is not used for a change-since-sale figure. SR1A 4 — Transfer of convenience, such as a deed to correct the title marks it non-usable, or the price is a nominal amount.

This class 2 — residential (four families or less) — net assessment sits above the town class-2 average of $652,667.

This town revalued/reassessed for tax year 2026. New assessments are set near true market value, so we treat the ratio as ~100% for this year. Published Chapter 123 average ratio for appeals/statistics is still 98.39% (often still reflecting the prior assessment base).

Building permits for 400 CHESTNUT AVE

Flood zone for 400 CHESTNUT AVE

FEMA’s flood map places the mapped point for 400 CHESTNUT AVE in zone X.

The high and low ground elevation could not be read for this lot.

These figures are estimates. The zone and any flood elevation come from FEMA’s flood map at a point for this address, and that point can fall in the street. The high and low come from the state’s 10-foot ground scan of the lot outline. A cell can catch a ditch, the street, or the edge of the lot. They are not a survey and not an insurance rating. A licensed surveyor measures the ground and the building. The town floodplain administrator, or a licensed engineer, confirms what the zone means for this lot. No zone at this point, or zone X, does not mean the lot will not flood.

Water and sewer for 400 CHESTNUT AVE

This lot is within the Bergen County UA sewer system. Please verify with the provider.

This lot is within the Veolia Water NJ Hackensack water system. Please verify with the provider.

These lines come from the state’s sewer service areas and public community water areas, read at a point for this address. That point can fall in the street. Being inside a named area means the lot is inside that mapped system, not that a pipe or a meter is on the house. Being outside means the lot is outside the mapped service area, which is usually a septic system or a private well. It is not a hookup record. Please verify with the provider.

Assessed value & ratio history

Parcel assessed nets come from MOD-IV year files (2023, 2024, 2025, 2026). Town average ratios are from Abstract / Chapter 123 when available — implied equalized = assessed ÷ (ratio ÷ 100).

Tax year Assessed net Avg ratio Implied equalized Assessed Δ Equalized Δ
2023 $961,900 100.00% $961,900 — —
2024 $1,049,300 99.02% $1,059,685 +9.1% +10.2%
2025 $1,086,500 97.72% $1,111,850 +3.5% +4.9%
2026 $1,143,400 100.00% $1,143,400 +5.2% +2.8%

2023: Published average ratio exceeded 100%; New Jersey treats that as 100% for equalization.

2026: This town revalued/reassessed for tax year 2026. New assessments are set near true market value, so we treat the ratio as ~100% for this year. Published Chapter 123 average ratio for appeals/statistics is still 98.39% (often still reflecting the prior assessment base).
