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:
- 311-33 Christian Stexemption0.00%$0/yr on $1.7M
- 300 Christian Sttax-abated new construction0.14%$8,683/yr on $6.2M
- 303 Christian Sttax-abated new construction0.43%$1,970/yr on $458K
- 341 Christian Sttax-abated new construction0.46%$2,952/yr on $646K
- 305 Christian Stexemption1.10%$5,116/yr on $466K
- …and 4 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 300 Christian St is assessed at $6.2M but pays $8,683 a year — about 10% of the $86,841 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 +6.1% a year against the city's 6.5%.
