The Fair Share Report

115 E 5th St

Ship Bottom, NJ 08062

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

≈ $964,251

Likely range $751,571 – $987,705, from 12 comparable Ship Bottom sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

53.09%

The state's official measure of how far Ship Bottom assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $964,251 home should be assessed near $511,921.

$536,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $24,179 above what the ratio math suggests (4.7%).
