Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $6,048,685 – $9,219,040, from 6 comparable Bay Head 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 Bay Head assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $8,043,393 home should be assessed near $4,511,539.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $557,361 above what the ratio math suggests (12.4%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Bay Head home
$0.251 Schools · 23% $0.576 County · 52% $0.277 Town · 25%
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Bay Head sale · assessed ÷ market

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