2026 taxable assessment $167,200 × 1.3998%. Estimate—not a bill or account balance.
OPA also publishes a 2027 assessment of $559,700; it is not the 2026 billed-year value.

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 8711573082026 OPA taxes $167,200 of $836,000 assessed. The assessment fields alone do not identify a program, approval date, expiration, or buyer eligibility.

$16,300.33 was recorded for this parcel in Philadelphia's June 2022 delinquency snapshot for 2015–2021. That amount may have been paid, reduced, or increased since; it is not a current payoff figure.

The snapshot’s 2022 context used $843,600 total assessment, $168,720 taxable, and $674,880 exempt/abated. Those historical fields can differ from today’s OPA exemption status.

View supporting records →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
Verify the current tax bill and exemption
The 2026 taxable assessment implies about $2,340/yr, while applying the same rate to the full assessment would imply about $11,702/yr — $9,362/yr more. OPA's assessment split does not establish the exemption program, expiration, or buyer eligibility. Verify the basis and live bill with OPA and Revenue.
The last transfer used nominal consideration
The latest deed records $100 or less. That is not a usable market-sale price and can reflect a family, estate, gift, correction, or entity transfer. Inspect the deed and order a title search rather than inferring the relationship or chain.
If you own it
Verify which assessment relief applies
OPA shows a material assessment exemption, but this record does not identify its legal basis or transfer treatment. Ask OPA for the approval history; if the current treatment ends, an eligible owner-occupant may need to apply separately for Homestead relief.
$16,300 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.

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.

Free record guide
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 9 on this property
This property’s file includes ZP_ZONING, ZP_ZON/USE, BP_NEWCNST, PP_PLUMBNG permit records. A permit documents authorized scope and a City process; it is not by itself proof that every described improvement was completed, remains in place, or meets today’s condition expectations.
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: material assessment exemption — legal basis and term unverified · $16K recorded in the June 2022 delinquency snapshot — verify current balance · 1 zoning/board appeal on record. Informational only — not investment advice or a consumer report (FCRA).
The assessment exemption gap
OPA's 2026 taxable assessment implies about $2,340/year. Applying the same 1.3998% rate to the full assessed value would imply ~$11,702/year — $9,362/year more. That is a scenario, not a forecast: the assessment split alone does not identify the exemption program, approval date, expiration, transfer treatment, or live Tax Center balance.
2026: ($836,000 assessed − $668,833 exempt) × 1.3998% ≈ $2,340/yr
full-assessment scenario: $836,000 × 1.3998% ≈ $11,702/yr
The OPA amount does not prove a ten-year abatement or any other specific program. Obtain the approval history and verify the current Tax Center account; a buyer should not assume the seller's relief transfers or restarts.

Methodology & freshness
This report was assembled Jul 10, 2026, 10:20 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.
