AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 4429 S Sawyer Ave in Brighton Park, currently owned by Maria Uriostegui, was constructed in 1918 and has undergone minimal changes in ownership structure since its inception. Over the past seven years, there have been a total of eight service requests logged through the city's 311 system, with the most recent activity recorded in 2026. The majority of these requests (five out of eight) have been related to garbage cart maintenance issues, with three specific maintenance calls made in May 2025 alone, though all of these issues were ultimately resolved. Other service requests include a closed street light outage complaint from April 2026 and a graffiti removal request from August 2025. Notably, an open request for a blue recycling cart from June 2026 remains pending resolution. The service request pattern suggests regular municipal service needs typical of an older two-flat building, with a particular recurring focus on waste management infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 4429 S Sawyer Ave'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.
