Reading this house's deeds, permits and assessments…

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’re buying

The tax bill is temporary

Today's $1,005/yr reflects a 10-year abatement. It steps up every year and reaches about $10,051/yr in 2034 — $9,046/yr more. Price the full bill, not the current one.

The last transfer was not a sale

The most recent recorded deed moved for nominal consideration, within one family. That is where tangled-title problems live — budget a real title search. (Occupants untangling an inherited deed can get help from the city's Tangled Title Fund.)

If you’re the landlord

Licensed rental — keep it that way

Renewal requires city tax clearance and zero open L&I violations on the property. A lapsed license suspends the right to collect rent or evict.

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.

Who's behind it

Blonde Truck Enterprises LLC · corporate / LLC owner

• Holds an active rental license for this address
• The last transfer was a nominal/family deed, not an open-market sale

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 analyst below to dig into any number.

The abatement clock

This house pays about $1,005/yr under a 10-year tax abatement that steps down every year. In 2034 the bill reaches its full ~$10,051/yr — a step up of $9,046/yr, 7 assessment years out. Drag the slider.

now: ($718,000 assessed − $646,204 abated) × 1.3998% ≈ $1,005/yr 2034: $718,000 assessed × 1.3998% ≈ $10,051/yr The abated slice shrinks ~10% a year (post-2022 program, started 2024) — reassessments move both lines. After expiry an owner-occupant can claim the Homestead Exemption (~$1,400/yr off); an abated home can't hold both.
