Philadelphia County

Is your Philadelphia rental over-assessed?

The city values your property using nearby sale prices, as though it were the house next door. But a rental is worth what it earns. We build your appeal on the income it actually produces.

See the difference for free in about ten minutes. If an appeal makes sense, your full filing package is $49, paid once.

  • The check is free. No card, no account
  • Based on your rent and expenses, not a generic comps list
  • Your assessment read from the city’s own records
  • A straight answer when an appeal would help you

Start with your address

We look it up in the city’s public assessment records so you are not copying numbers off a letter. About ten minutes to an answer.

You can also type the nine-digit OPA account number from your assessment notice here instead.

No account needed to start. Nothing is shared with the city until you file it.

What makes this different

Comps value the house next door. We value the building.

Most appeals argue from what sold nearby. Rentals are valued on what they earn.

Comparable sales

What most online appeal packets use

Values your property by what nearby buildings sold for.

Income capitalization

What we build

The method built for rentals

Values your property by the rent it actually earns, minus what it costs to run.

How it works

Four steps

  1. 1

    Find your property

    Type the address. We read the assessment, lot size, improvement area and zoning straight from the city’s public records, and pull the data for you.

  2. 2

    Enter your figures

    The rent it collects, what it costs to run, and the capitalization rate you consider fair. The value updates as you type.

  3. 3

    See the value difference for free

    Your value against the city’s, in dollars and in estimated tax savings. The numbers will tell you if an appeal would help you before you have paid anything.

  4. 4

    Only then, decide

    If it is worth filing, the package downloads as a single PDF once you confirm every figure. Print it, sign it, and send it to the city.

What you can do here

Check for free. Pay only if it is worth filing.

The check costs nothing and takes about ten minutes. The paperwork is what you pay for, and only once you know the answer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the free check actually tell me?

What your property is worth based on your own figures, what the city says it is worth, and the difference between them in dollars and in estimated tax savings. No card, no account. If the numbers say an appeal would not help you, we will tell you that.

What exactly do I get?

A completed PDF package containing the city’s Real Estate Market Value Appeal form and Value Summary Cover Sheet filled in with your figures, a value calculation sheet showing the income and expense mathematics behind the number, your property’s photos, and your current leases. Packaged professionally and ready to submit to the city.

How is the value calculated?

By income capitalization, the method the city already recognizes for income-producing property. The valuation is based on your specific rent and expenses. The software does the calculations and provides the required backup in the package, so anyone reading it can check it.

Does this work for my property?

It is built for rented property in Philadelphia County: a rowhouse you rent out, a duplex, a small apartment building, a mixed-use property with tenants. The valuation method is based on rental income, so a home you live in yourself is not something it can value. The first thing it asks for is the rent, which is the answer either way, and the check is free, so you find out before you have paid anything.

Your 2027 appeal takes about ten minutes

You need your rent, your operating expenses, and a capitalization rate. The rest comes from the city’s records or from the calculation.
