Step 1 · Market value

Likely range $593,002 – $679,517, 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 $656,922 home should be assessed near $607,456.

Step 3 · Assessed value

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $161,544 above what the ratio math suggests (26.6%).

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

$0.713 Schools · 45% $0.339 County · 21% $0.526 Town · 33%

This home's own bill implies $1.545 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
