Deal Check: Strong
Why- Published minimum bid: $23,500 (source: official Philadelphia County sheriff list, as of Oct 28, 2026).
- City of Philadelphia OPA market value: $161,500 (source: City of Philadelphia Office of Property Assessment (OPA), via the City's open-data API, retrieved Oct 29, 2026).
- $23,500 ÷ $161,500 = 15%. Our rule: 50% or less = Strong, up to 80% = Fair, above = Pass.
- In Pennsylvania the plaintiff (the lender or taxing body) can bid up to what it is owed plus costs, so the final price may be higher than this number. Philadelphia's OPA market value is the City's mass-appraisal estimate, not an inspection.
- Back taxes are not published in our sources; check the county treasurer/tax collector.
- Postponed 2 time(s) per the official status history.
- Occupancy: not stated by the official source.
Deal Check is a simple math check of published numbers, not an appraisal and not financial advice. It does not know the condition, liens, title problems, or back taxes. Inspect from the street, run a title/lien search, and verify everything with the county before you bid.
