Question or correct this record
BlockReport can explain a discrepancy, but it cannot rewrite an official City record. Use the agency that owns the underlying fact:
Property tax
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.
A Tax Center balance is net of bills, payments, credits, interest, and adjustments. A credit—or an amount due—is not automatically “back taxes.”
OPA 8829356072026 taxable assessment equals the full assessed value.
Historical delinquency sources No current conclusion
This parcel did not match the June 2022 delinquency snapshot. That absence does not confirm the account is current today.
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 recordRenovated & sold on
Why it mattersBought for $75K in 2002, addition and/or alteration permit in 2019, sold for $450K in 2024 (+500%).
View supporting records →Marked sealed, but it just sold
Why it mattersThe assessor's condition code says sealed, yet a $450,000 sale was recorded in 2024. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.
View supporting records →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 $286,800; it is not yet the billed-year tax basis.

What this record suggests
The City file documents 4 permits touching electrical work, plumbing. Status needs checking in the official file; that documents the filing, not the present quality of the work.
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 $450,000 sale was recorded in 2024. One side of the record is stale — condition codes come from drive-by field visits that can lag years behind.

Methodology & freshness
This report was assembled Jul 10, 2026, 3:26 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: queried. “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.
