The Fair Share Report

70 Dock Ave

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

≈ $310,490

Likely range $277,500 – $347,434, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 888 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 $310,490 home should be assessed near $287,110.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$238,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $48,510 below what the ratio math suggests (16.9%).

$0.713 Schools · 45% $0.339 County · 21% $0.526 Town · 33%
