6
6 properties on this block carry a tax abatement or major exemption. New construction and gut rehabs get the improvement value exempted for up to 10 years, so their tax bills sit far below their real value — block-wide, exemptions keep about $32,610 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

1806 S 19th St is assessed at $434K but pays $2,832 a year — about 47% of the $6,072 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
