Property tax
$5,879/year estimated property tax
2026 taxable assessment $420,000 × 1.3998%. This is an estimate, not a bill or account balance. The City maintains payments, credits, interest, and the current amount due.
OPA has published a 2027 assessment of $503,400. It is not the 2026 billed-year value.
Payments, credits, interest, and the current amount due are maintained by the City.
OPA 8712988102026 taxable assessment equals the full assessed value.
Historical delinquency sources Record found
$282,734.09 was recorded for this parcel in Philadelphia's June 2022 delinquency snapshot for 1998–2021. That amount may have been paid, reduced, or increased since; it is not a current payoff figure.

Where the record looks off
Conflicts in City paperwork. Flags on the data, not the property.
Marked vacant, but it just sold
The assessor's condition code says vacant, yet a $352,100 sale was recorded in 2025. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.
"Built 1900" is usually a placeholder
Philadelphia records use 1900 as a stand-in when the real construction year was never documented. Treat the age as unknown, not as 120+ years.

Methodology & freshness
This report was assembled Jul 19, 2026, 4:51 PM ET. Available City datasets are queried from OpenDataPhilly (phl.carto.com) and the cited City ArcGIS feeds; record queries paginate rather than silently taking a first page. For this property: Permits: queried · Violations: queried · Investigations: queried · Appeals: queried · Licenses: queried · Building certifications: queried. “Unavailable” means the source query failed or was not supplied, not “no record.” Reports re-pull on view after seven days and on an overnight rolling schedule; citywide benchmarks recompute weekly. Source dates still govern: the parcel-level tax-delinquency snapshot is June 2022 and the separate detailed tax ledger ends in 2016, so neither establishes today’s balance. The live balance and date-effective payoff must be verified in Tax Center. AI-written passages are grounded in the assembled record and rejected if they state a number the record does not hold.
