Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $731,646 – $928,133, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
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 $859,700 home should be assessed near $810,267.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $117,333 above what the ratio math suggests (14.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ocean home
$0.801 Schools · 61% $0.224 County · 17% $0.295 Town · 22%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Ocean sale · assessed ÷ market

A touch high — worth watching
This home's ratio sits above most of Ocean, but doesn't clear NJ's legal appeal line (100.00%).
