The estimate, live balance, and back-tax record are different.

BlockReport can calculate the annual tax from the City’s taxable assessment. Payments, credits, interest, and a current amount due live separately in Philadelphia Tax Center.

Estimated annual Real Estate Tax$980/year

2026 taxable assessment $70,000 × 1.3998%. Estimate—not a bill or account balance.

OPA also publishes a 2027 assessment of $59,800; it is not the 2026 billed-year value.

Official current account balanceCheck live

A Tax Center balance is net of bills, payments, credits, interest, and adjustments. A credit—or an amount due—is not automatically “back taxes.”

Exemption classificationNo exemption shown

2026 taxable assessment equals the full assessed value.

Historical delinquency sources Record found

$1,564.22 was recorded for this parcel in Philadelphia's June 2022 delinquency snapshot. That amount may have been paid, reduced, or increased since; it is not a current payoff figure.

For a purchase, refinance, or closing, request the City’s official Property Payoff statement in Tax Center under “More options.”

What stands out

From the public record
Finding

Marked sealed, but it just sold

Why it matters

The assessor's condition code says sealed, yet a $50,000 sale was recorded in 2026. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.

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 flagRecords to verify together

Several independent, separately dated records stack up here and deserve prompt verification.

Evidence: 7 open L&I violations · $1,564 appeared in the City's June 2022 delinquency snapshot · failed L&I inspection activity in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024

Limit: A screening signal, not a foreclosure prediction. Tax entries are historical and must be verified with Philadelphia Revenue.

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’re buying

Built 1939: lead rules apply

Federal law requires a lead-paint disclosure at sale for any pre-1978 home. If it will be rented, Philadelphia also requires a lead-safe or lead-free certificate before a rental license can issue.

Zoned RSA5: one household by right

Single-family rowhouse (the classic Philly row). Converting to a duplex or apartments needs a use variance the zoning board rarely grants — Pennsylvania courts require a physical hardship of the lot itself, and economics alone do not qualify.

If you own it

7 open violations: the clock matters

Most L&I appeals must be filed within 30 days; unsafe or imminently dangerous orders can carry a shorter deadline. Unresolved notices can lead to fees, court enforcement, City abatement work, and liens. Read the dated notice and verify its current status with L&I.

$1,564 in the June 2022 delinquency snapshot

The City recorded this amount in June 2022. It may since have been paid, reduced, or increased; verify the current balance directly with Philadelphia Revenue.

If you’re the landlord

If it is rented, verify the Rental License

The fetched license records do not show an active Rental License. Ownership type or a tax mailing address does not prove that tenants occupy the property; if it is rented, verify the current license and legal occupancy in eCLIPSE.

Derived from the fetched property records and linked City guidance as of 2026. Assessment treatment is not a substitute for an exemption approval, live balance, title report, license, occupancy certificate, or inspection. 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.

How Philadelphia’s property system works

These explainers are free because the record only helps if you know what it can—and cannot—prove. Use the linked City guidance for the controlling rule.

Permits and inspections

A permit is the City’s authorization and review pathway for construction or repair work. No fetched permit is not proof that no work ever happened.

L&I inspections are scheduled at defined stages; final inspection and required certifications are separate steps in closing out applicable work.

How construction and repair permits work ↗See City inspection stages by permit type ↗
Assessments and taxes

The OPA assessment is the City’s value on the tax roll—not an asking price, appraisal, or live account balance. The taxable assessment can differ from the full assessment because the City roll records exemptions or other treatment; the report keeps those fields separate.

Your annual estimate uses the taxable assessment. Payments, credits, interest, and the amount due are maintained separately in Tax Center.

How the Office of Property Assessment works ↗Philadelphia property-tax guidance ↗
Violations, cases, and status check current status

An open row is a dated City status, not a diagnosis of current condition or a conclusion about the property. Read the case, notice, and any subsequent inspection together, then verify the live file.

How L&I code enforcement works ↗City violation and order types ↗

Flags: 7 open L&I violations · $2K recorded in the June 2022 delinquency snapshot — verify current balance · latest deed has shared-name parties — relationship unverified. Informational only — not investment advice or a consumer report (FCRA).

Where the record looks off

Places where the city's own paperwork disagrees with itself. These are flags on the data — not problems with the property.

Marked sealed, but it just sold

The assessor's condition code says sealed, yet a $50,000 sale was recorded in 2026. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.

Run the numbers

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 9, 2026, 4:06 PM 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. “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.
