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:
- 218-22 N 12th Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $2.6M
- 214 N 12th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$1,443/yr on $1.0M
- 245 N 12th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$1,443/yr on $1.0M
- 251 N 12th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$1,853/yr on $1.3M
- 225-27 N 12th Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$4,428/yr on $3.2M
The starkest example: 225-27 N 12th St is assessed at $3.2M but pays $4,428 a year — about 10% of the $44,283 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 tracked the Philadelphia market, compounding +6.3% a year against the city's 6.5%.
Indexed performance · this block vs. the Philadelphia market
Rebased to 100 in 2016, like a stock against its index. $100 in the typical home here would be worth $196 today versus $201 across Philadelphia — this block trailed the market.
