OPA has published a 2027 assessment of $254,600. It is not the 2026 billed-year value.

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

Landlord and residential filings

These are property registrations or landlord filings, not businesses operating at this address.

SALAH & AHMAD MUSTAFA & ARMANDOInactive

Vacant Residential Property / Lot · Initial issue date Aug 10, 2011 · Terminal license date Mar 12, 2012

A license is an L&I registration, not proof that a business is open, operating today, or located at this storefront. Dates are license dates. Events are deduped by parcel, business identity, and license type, so a renewal is not shown as another opening. Other permit and filing types remain in the full source ledger.

  1. License terminal eventSALAH & AHMAD MUSTAFA & ARMANDO: Vacant Residential Property / Lot landlord or residential registration marked inactive

    License 541048 · Inactive

    License event. Registration does not prove present operation or storefront occupancy.

  2. InvestigationHCEU INSP (Housing Code Enforcement Unit inspection)

    Case 246586 · PASSED

    A legacy L&I inspection label. The unit inspected housing for property-maintenance, fire-prevention, and related code compliance; the separate status says how that visit ended. The cited inspection visit was marked passed.

  3. License issue eventSALAH & AHMAD MUSTAFA & ARMANDO: Vacant Residential Property / Lot landlord or residential registration initially issued

    License 541048 · Inactive

    License event. Registration does not prove present operation or storefront occupancy.

  4. InvestigationHCEU INSP (Housing Code Enforcement Unit inspection)

    Case 246586 · FAILED

    A legacy L&I inspection label. The unit inspected housing for property-maintenance, fire-prevention, and related code compliance; the separate status says how that visit ended. The cited inspection visit was marked failed; later rows may show follow-up or resolution.

  6. ViolationVACANT PROP STANDARD (likely: vacant-property enforcement standard)

    Case 246586 · Violation 1821724 · Code PM-306.0/1 · COMPLIED

    A legacy L&I label associated with vacant-property requirements. It may concern licensing, securing, or maintaining a vacant structure; the notice and cited code control, and this row alone does not prove the property is vacant now. City marked this violation complied with; check the resolution date and live case for what was accepted.

  7. ViolationLICENSE-VAC RES BLDG (vacant residential building license required)

    Case 246586 · Violation 1821723 · Code PM-102.4/2 · COMPLIED

    This usually records a requirement to obtain a Vacant Structure License for an unoccupied residential building. Check later license and compliance rows because it does not establish present vacancy or an unresolved violation. City marked this violation complied with; check the resolution date and live case for what was accepted.

  8. InvestigationHCEU INSP (Housing Code Enforcement Unit inspection)

    A legacy L&I inspection label. The unit inspected housing for property-maintenance, fire-prevention, and related code compliance; the separate status says how that visit ended. The cited inspection visit was marked failed; later rows may show follow-up or resolution.

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 28, 2026, 9:19 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.
