The Fair Share Report

19 James 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

≈ $870,021

Likely range $816,786 – $947,025, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 3,749 sq ft.

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 $870,021 home should be assessed near $804,508.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$774,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $30,508 below what the ratio math suggests (3.8%).
