The Fair Share Report

24 Beacon 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

≈ $753,025

Likely range $684,808 – $802,517, 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 $753,025 home should be assessed near $696,322.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$826,100

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $129,778 above what the ratio math suggests (18.6%).

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

$13,036/yr
Public schools$5,890
Ocean County$2,800
Town of Ocean$4,345
Ocean average$7,377

Looks meaningfully over-assessed

Even at the generous end of the range, this home's ratio clears the Chapter 123 appeal line (100.00%) — roughly $2,048/yr at stake. NJ appeals are generally due April 1.
