$834/year estimated property tax

2026 taxable assessment $59,600 × 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 $189,700. It is not the 2026 billed-year value.

Exemption classificationHomestead exemption

2026 OPA removes $100,000 from the taxable assessment through the owner-occupant exemption.

Historical delinquency sources No current conclusion

This parcel did not match the June 2022 delinquency snapshot. That absence does not confirm the account is current today.

For a purchase, refinance, or closing, request the City’s official Property Payoff statement in Tax Center under “More options.”

Where the record looks off

Conflicts in City paperwork. Flags on the data, not the property.

Assessment and sale price disagree hard

Assessed at $190K, but it traded for $26,000 in 2025 — a 7.3× gap. Could be a non-market deed the record doesn't label, or an assessment that hasn't caught up.

Homestead exemption, mail goes elsewhere

The parcel claims the homestead exemption (owner lives here) while the tax bill mails to 1661 Worthington Rd Suite 100, West Palm Beach Fl, 33409. Those two facts sit in tension on the record — there can be innocent reasons, but one of them is usually out of date.

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 26, 2026, 5:34 AM 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.
