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$10,499/year

2026 taxable assessment $750,000 × 1.3998%. Estimate—not a bill or account balance.

OPA also publishes a 2027 assessment of $939,000; 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

$423.32 was recorded for this parcel in Philadelphia's June 2022 delinquency snapshot for 2021. That amount may have been paid, reduced, or increased since; it is not a current payoff figure.

The snapshot’s 2022 context used $628,000 total assessment, $628,000 taxable, and $0 exempt/abated. Those historical fields can differ from today’s OPA exemption status.

A separate historical parcel ledger ending in 2016 records $11,005.76 and a lien entry. It is shown as historical context only.

What stands out

From the public record
Finding

"Built 1900" is usually a placeholder

Why it matters

Philadelphia records use 1900 as a stand-in when the real construction year was never documented. Treat the age as unknown, not as 120+ years.

The property record, over time

Every dated deed, permit, inspection, license, violation, certification, and appeal is placed on the City’s annual assessment line. Select a point to read what happened; the line is an assessment history—not a sale-price chart or appraisal. OPA has also published a 2027 assessment of $939,000; it is not yet the billed-year tax basis.

What this record suggests

The City file documents 10 permits touching bathroom work, electrical work, plumbing, roof work. 8 carries a completed, issued, or approved status; that documents the filing, not the present quality of the work.

Unavailable when this report assembled: certifications. Unavailable does not mean no record.

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.

"Built 1900" is usually a placeholder

Philadelphia records use 1900 as a stand-in when the real construction year was never documented. Treat the age as unknown, not as 120+ years.

Where this comes from

Methodology & freshness

This report was assembled Jul 10, 2026, 3:28 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: unavailable. “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.
