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:
- 1244 Frankford Avetax-abated new construction0.16%$588/yr on $378K
- 1224 Frankford Aveexemption0.23%$6,960/yr on $3.0M
- 1207 Frankford Aveexemption0.96%$3,010/yr on $315K
- 1246 Frankford Aveexemption1.08%$4,709/yr on $436K
The starkest example: 1244 Frankford Ave is assessed at $378K but pays $588 a year — about 11% of the $5,290 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 lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +3.5% a year against the city's 6.5%.
