$6,999/year estimated property tax

2026 taxable assessment $500,000 × 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 $849,800. It is not the 2026 billed-year value.

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.”

The assessment exemption gap

OPA's 2026 roll shows a partial assessment exemption. The annual difference is measurable; the reason for it and what happens after a sale are not established here.

If the full assessment were taxable ~$12,248/year

$875,000 scenario basis

The assessment roll does not identify
  • Legal basis or program
  • Approval or expiration date
  • Treatment after a sale
  • Current Tax Center balance
Show the assessment math 2026: ($875,000 assessed − $375,000 exempt) × 1.3998% ≈ $6,999/year Full-assessment scenario: $875,000 × 1.3998% ≈ $12,248/year

Do not treat the full-assessment scenario as inevitable or assume the current relief transfers. Obtain the approval history and verify the live Tax Center account before relying on either number.

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 26, 2026, 4:33 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.
