Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $447,142 – $497,312, 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 $484,675 home should be assessed near $448,179.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $103,779 below what the ratio math suggests (23.2%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ocean home
$0.713 Schools · 45% $0.339 County · 21% $0.526 Town · 33%
This home's own bill implies $1.505 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Keep quiet and enjoy it
This home's assessment ratio sits below the Ocean pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
