Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $472,696 – $859,882, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Ocean assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $571,697 home should be assessed near $528,648.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $129,648 below what the ratio math suggests (24.5%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ocean home
$0.713 Schools · 45% $0.339 County · 21% $0.526 Town · 33%
This home's own bill implies $1.515 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Ocean sale · assessed ÷ market

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Ocean's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
