The Fair Share Report

305 Fourth 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

≈ $398,312

Likely range $371,560 – $510,602, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 1,296 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 $398,312 home should be assessed near $368,319.

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $108,719 below what the ratio math suggests (29.5%).

Keep quiet and enjoy it

This home's assessment ratio sits below the Ocean pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
