Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $812,597 – $1,267,661, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,032 sq ft.
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Ocean assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $936,960 home should be assessed near $883,085.
