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 $34,000 sale was recorded in 2023. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 31, 2026, 6:01 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.
