Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The four-unit building at 3561 S King Drive in Chicago's Douglas neighborhood, constructed in 1908, is currently owned by CTLTC with associated ownership of two parcels. The building's recent service request history is quite limited, with only two 311 service requests recorded in the past seven years, both of which have been closed. These requests include a sanitation code violation in March 2026 and a tree trimming request in April 2025, though it should be noted that tree trimming requests are no longer being accepted through the 311 system. The property has a notably low filing history, with only one building permit recorded in the same seven-year period, and tracking suggests the ownership entity has made a total of nine service requests across all properties under its name in the past seven years. While the age of the building and limited service request history provide some insights, the available data does not indicate any significant pattern of issues or concerns with the property.

Risk rating

How 3561 S King Dr's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
27thpercentile

Out of 302 buildings in this neighborhood, 220 are predicted to be safer.
