Historical tax record
Verify the current balance before relying on it.
$13K 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.
A separate historical parcel ledger ending in 2016 records $9K and a lien entry. It is shown as historical context only.

From the public recordWhat the record is signaling
Early patterns mined across this property's dated public records. Each flag shows what triggered it and where the inference stops.
Public-record pressure
More than one public record deserves a current-status check.
Evidence: $12,934 appeared in the City's June 2022 delinquency snapshot · a lien number appears in the historical tax ledger through 2016 · failed L&I inspection activity in 2021, 2022
Limit: A screening signal, not a foreclosure prediction. Tax entries are historical and must be verified with Philadelphia Revenue.
Post-purchase work pattern
A recorded purchase followed by 8 permit events matches the early part of a renovate-and-resell sequence.
Evidence: purchase recorded in 2022 · permit activity in 2023, 2024, 2025
Limit: This does not show that the property is listed or that a sale is planned.
Transparent record rules, not a machine-learning forecast. A signal is a prompt to verify the cited record, 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
The current tax estimate is temporary
The taxable assessment implies about $1,248/yr under a 10-year abatement. The estimate steps up every year and reaches about $5,501/yr in 2035 — $4,253/yr more. Underwrite the post-abatement estimate and verify the actual bill with Revenue.
Built 1920: 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.
If you own it
$8,859 in the historical tax ledger through 2016
Historical context only, not a current payoff figure; that ledger also contains a lien entry. Verify today's balance and lien status directly with Philadelphia Revenue before relying on it.
If you’re the landlord
Lead certificate is not optional
Built 1920: every rental unit needs a lead-safe or lead-free certificate on file with the City. Without one: fines up to $2,000/day per unit, tenants may withhold rent, courts can order rent refunded — and no eviction will stand.
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.

The investment read
How this building 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.

The abatement clock
This house’s taxable assessment implies about $1,248/yr under a 10-year tax abatement that steps down every year. In 2035 the assessment-based estimate reaches ~$5,501/yr — a step up of $4,253/yr, 8 assessment years out. Drag the slider.
now: ($393,000 assessed − $303,844 abated) × 1.3998% ≈ $1,248/yr
2035: $393,000 assessed × 1.3998% ≈ $5,501/yr
The abated slice shrinks ~10% a year (post-2022 program, started 2025) — 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.

Run the numbers
What owning 5601 Lansdowne Ave takes, at your price and your rate. Taxes start with an annual estimate from the City’s taxable assessment, not a current bill or balance; rent starts at 3 licensed units × ~85% of the area's median unit rent — the whole building's income, not one unit's. Assessed value is not an asking price — set the price slider to the real one.
When this house last sold (2022) a 30-year mortgage ran about 5.34% — Freddie Mac's average that year.

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.
