What it's worth, and where taxes are going

• $373K typical home, up +213% since 2016
• Tax bill $981 to $3,500 a year, +12%/yr and compounding
• Whole block: $22M assessed, $198,829/yr to the city, about $3,899 per home

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:

• 2133 E Sergeant Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$1,604/yr on $573K
• 2178 E Sergeant Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$1,788/yr on $639K
• 2115 E Sergeant Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$1,939/yr on $693K
• 2134-36 E Sergeant Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$2,808/yr on $1.0M
• 2138-40 E Sergeant Sttax-abated new construction0.28%$2,808/yr on $1.0M
• …and 28 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart

The starkest example: 2134-36 E Sergeant St is assessed at $1.0M but pays $2,808 a year — about 20% of the $14,041 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 +10.9% a year against the city's 6.5%.
