Records to verify together

Rule-based groupings across this property's dated public records. Each flag shows the records that belong in the same verification step and where the inference stops.

Dated record flagPost-purchase work pattern

A recorded purchase followed by 1 permit event matches the early part of a renovate-and-resell sequence.

Evidence: purchase recorded in 2022 · permit activity in 2022

Limit: This does not show that the property is listed or that a sale is planned.

Dated record flagAssessment/permit mismatch

The assessment jumped 209% in 2027, but no matching permit appears in the property timeline.

Evidence: assessment moved from $695,900 to $2,152,400 · no permit shown in 2026-2028

Limit: Not proof of unpermitted work; reassessment, corrected data, or a permit under another parcel can also explain it.

Transparent record rules, not a score or forecast. Each flag is a prompt to verify the cited records, not a prediction or allegation.

What to do with this

The record, translated into moves — what a buyer, the owner, and a landlord would each want to check next under Philadelphia's actual rules.

If you own it

$1,399/yr may be unclaimed

This home reads owner-occupied but shows no Homestead Exemption, which removes $100,000 from the taxable assessment (worth up to $1,399/yr). Applying through the City is free and takes minutes.

Derived from this house's public records and the city's rules as of 2026 (abatement ordinance, Homestead, rental licensing, lead certification, L&I process, excavation protections). Informational only — not legal, tax, or investment advice.

The investment read

How this house has moved and where it's pointed: the city's assessed value (not a listing price) over 12 years, charted against its block; appreciation is that history's pace, and the 5-year figure simply extends it. Yield estimates rent-vs-price from area rents. Ask the record to dig into any number.

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

Available City datasets are queried from OpenDataPhilly (phl.carto.com), then reports are cached and refreshed on a rolling schedule. Source dates vary: the parcel-level tax-delinquency snapshot is June 2022 and the separate detailed tax ledger ends in 2016, so neither establishes today’s balance. Other dossiers re-pull on view once stale, and citywide benchmarks recompute weekly. AI-written passages are generated from these records only and rejected if they state a number the record doesn't hold.
