The Fair Share Report

16 Bluebeard Dr

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

≈ $430,275

Likely range $393,709 – $625,825, 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 $430,275 home should be assessed near $397,875.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$594,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $196,125 above what the ratio math suggests (49.3%).

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%

Step 5 · The bill

$9,373/yr
Public schools$4,235
Ocean County$2,014
Town of Ocean$3,124
Ocean average$7,377

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%).
