The Fair Share Report

8 Pine Ln

Ocean, NJ 07712

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

≈ $900,025

Likely range $706,610 – $1,188,412, from 12 comparable Ocean sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

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 $900,025 home should be assessed near $848,274.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$641,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $206,374 below what the ratio math suggests (24.3%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ocean home

$1.319 per $100 assessed

$0.801 Schools · 61% $0.224 County · 17% $0.295 Town · 22%

This home's own bill implies $1.288 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$5,016
Monmouth County$1,403

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.
