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:
- 1523 E Cayuga Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $280K
- 1503 E Cayuga Stexemption0.89%$2,422/yr on $273K
- 1543 E Cayuga Stexemption0.90%$2,501/yr on $279K
- 1539 E Cayuga Stexemption0.91%$2,592/yr on $285K
- 1541 E Cayuga Stexemption0.91%$2,592/yr on $285K
- …and 7 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 1523 E Cayuga St is assessed at $280K but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $3,921 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 +8.5% a year against the city's 6.5%.
