The Fair Share Report

213 Second Ave

Belmar, NJ 07932

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

≈ $915,503

Likely range $598,797 – $1,181,714, from 12 comparable Belmar sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

55.41%

The state's official measure of how far Belmar assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $915,503 home should be assessed near $507,280.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$846,400

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $339,120 above what the ratio math suggests (66.9%).

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

$1.570 per $100 assessed

$0.599 Schools · 38% $0.350 County · 22% $0.620 Town · 40%
