Unlock complete reportThe two-unit residential building at 5135 S Maplewood Ave in Gage Park, owned by Salvador Torres, has a documented history dating back to its construction in 1888. The property has experienced minimal recent activity, with only three 311 service requests in the past seven years, all of which were tree trimming or graffiti-related issues, with the most recent being a graffiti removal request in September 2025. The building's compliance history shows six building violations over seven years, though no specific details about these violations are provided in the records. A significant cluster of violations was issued in June 2012 regarding vacant building maintenance requirements, including failure to secure the property and requirements for watchmen, though these were ultimately resolved through city non-suit with no fines incurred. The building's permit activity has been limited to just one permit in the past seven years. While the age of the building and its relatively minimal recent service requests suggest generally stable conditions, the historical violations related to vacant building maintenance in 2012 are notable, though they appear to have been properly addressed at the time.

How 5135 S Maplewood 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.
Out of 1776 buildings in this neighborhood, 551 are predicted to be safer.
