The Gathering Tredyffrin Real Estate Taxes Storm
The Tredyffrin Township Board of Supervisors meets Monday December 15th, 7:30pm at the Tredyffrin Township Building to Vote on the 2009 Tredyffrin Township Budget and a proposed 5% Tax Increase. An increase that would mean:
- proposed $24 per millage rate increase from 2.18 mills to 2.4 mills
- Summer Concerts funding TBD
- Community Day Funding TBD
- postponing a Police Officer hiring, etc
- a still looming 2010/2012 projected reserves short fall
What’s a mill? One mill of tax is equal to $1 for each $1000 of property assessed value. The formula looks like this:
- Property Assessed Value X Millage rate, (mills x .001) = tax.
- for example: $100,000 Assessed Value X 2.4 mills (.0024) = $240.00
- or $100,000 Assessed Value X 2.18 mills (.00218) = $218.00
Comparing Millage Rates for Townships in Chester County we can see that Tredyffrin Read the rest of this entry »

Schuylkill Township Chester County Pa Market Report November 2006 Vs 2008*
The Real Estate Market Report for Schuylkill Township in Chester County Pa comparison between November
2006 and November 2008 shows two of the three Supply and Demand indicators for Schuylkill Township dropping. The number of homes for sale, Months Supply of Inventory, is up 103% from 29.5 months to 60 months of inventory.
Keep in mind that these numbers for transactions are statistically small. Nevertheless, this looks like the picture of a real estate marketplace waiting for some official good news and a very strong Buyers Market. A good opportunity for those who are qualified and ready. If the median “for sale price” moderated a little more, the Inventory build up would likely start to move. Read the rest of this entry »
