Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $541,166 – $653,334, from 12 comparable Shamong 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 Shamong assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $602,090 home should be assessed near $340,482.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $19,582 below what the ratio math suggests (5.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Shamong home
$2.641 Schools · 79% $0.563 County · 17% $0.119 Town · 4%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Shamong sale · assessed ÷ market

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