Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $620,974 – $724,016, from 12 comparable Barnegat 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 Barnegat assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $661,393 home should be assessed near $364,891.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $50,191 below what the ratio math suggests (13.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Barnegat home
$1.527 Schools · 50% $0.562 County · 18% $0.993 Town · 32%

Paying about right
