Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 4744 S Harding Ave in Archer Heights, owned by Nereida Escamilla, has been experiencing significant ongoing issues since 2024, with multiple violations and service requests that merit attention. Most notably, there are currently six open complaint-driven inspection violations as of December 2024, marking a concerning pattern of unresolved building code issues. The property has recorded 18 building violations over the past seven years, with the majority occurring in recent months, particularly in the latter half of 2024. Additional service requests include incidents of water in the basement (August 2025), two reports of abandoned vehicles (April 2025), and several building and sanitation violations throughout 2024, though these earlier violations have been marked as closed. The building's violation and service request history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in relation to building code compliance, with the most pressing concerns being the multiple open violations recorded at the end of 2024. The property, constructed in 1927, has been under its current ownership for this period and has experienced an apparent increase in both building violations and service requests in recent years, with the most concerning patterns emerging in late 2024.

Risk rating

How 4744 S Harding 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

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

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

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

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

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