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:
- 9214-16 Cottage Sttax-abated new construction0.00%$0/yr on $308K
- 9217 Cottage Stexemption0.92%$2,702/yr on $293K
- 9219 Cottage Stexemption0.92%$2,702/yr on $293K
- 9231 Cottage Stexemption0.92%$2,702/yr on $293K
- 9233 Cottage Stexemption0.92%$2,702/yr on $293K
- …and 10 more paying under the full rate — the gold-ringed bubbles in the makeup chart
The starkest example: 9214-16 Cottage St is assessed at $308K but pays $0 a year — about 0% of the $4,307 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 +5.8% a year against the city's 6.5%.
