Who really pays
Philadelphia charges every home the same 1.40% of its assessed value. Abatements and exemptions shrink what some homes are taxed on — here's this block:
- 1147 W Colona Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $41K
- 1129 W Colona Sttax-abated new construction0.06%$134/yr on $219K
- 1137 W Colona Sttax-abated new construction0.07%$84/yr on $115K
- 1109 W Colona Sttax-abated new construction0.09%$134/yr on $155K
- 1121 W Colona Sttax-abated new construction0.09%$134/yr on $151K
- …and 6 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1127 W Colona St is assessed at $219K but pays $1,054 a year — about 34% of the $3,067 it would owe at the full rate, because its new-construction value is abated for 10 years.
The block as an asset
Read like a financial asset, this block has beaten the Philadelphia market, compounding +11.8% a year against the city's 6.5%.
