The Fair Share Report

18 Third St

Barnegat, NJ 08005

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

≈ $417,231

Likely range $378,669 – $519,694, from 12 comparable Barnegat sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

55.17%

The state's official measure of how far Barnegat assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $417,231 home should be assessed near $230,186.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$213,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $16,786 below what the ratio math suggests (7.3%).

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

$3.082 per $100 assessed

$1.527 Schools · 50% $0.562 County · 18% $0.993 Town · 32%
