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:
- 3000 S Sydenham Stexemption0.65%$1,229/yr on $188K
- 3008 S Sydenham Sttax-abated new construction0.73%$1,743/yr on $240K
- 3010 S Sydenham Sttax-abated new construction0.76%$1,743/yr on $229K
- 3014 S Sydenham Sttax-abated new construction0.78%$1,936/yr on $249K
- 3007 S Sydenham Stexemption0.79%$1,807/yr on $229K
- …and 10 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 3014 S Sydenham St is assessed at $249K but pays $1,936 a year — about 55% of the $3,491 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 lagged the Philadelphia market, compounding +3.5% a year against the city's 6.5%.
