The Fair Share Report

159 Brigantine Blvd

Ocean, NJ 08758

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

≈ $689,646

Likely range $609,552 – $701,478, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

92.47%

The state's official measure of how far Ocean assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $689,646 home should be assessed near $637,716.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$605,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $32,216 below what the ratio math suggests (5.1%).

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

$1.578 per $100 assessed

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

This home's own bill implies $1.537 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$9,305/yr
Public schools$4,204
Ocean County$1,999
Town of Ocean$3,102
Ocean average$7,377

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Ocean's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
