The Fair Share Report

26 Chestnut St

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

≈ $335,712

Likely range $323,221 – $377,098, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,058 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 $335,712 home should be assessed near $310,433.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$310,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $233 below what the ratio math suggests (0.1%).
