The Fair Share Report

403 Brookside Ave

Ocean, NJ 07755

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

≈ $1,058,399

Likely range $931,829 – $1,221,090, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,547 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

94.25%

The state's official measure of how far Ocean assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,058,399 home should be assessed near $997,541.

$1,460,200

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $462,659 above what the ratio math suggests (46.4%).
