Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $556,985 – $739,488, 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 $659,431 home should be assessed near $609,776.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $24,076 below what the ratio math suggests (3.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ocean home
$0.713 Schools · 45% $0.339 County · 21% $0.526 Town · 33%
Step 5 · The bill

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.
