Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6217 S Albany Ave in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood is a 1922 structure currently owned by Cipriano Olivares. The property has maintained a relatively low level of documented activity over the past seven years, with only one 311 service request and two building permits on record. The sole service request was submitted on June 5, 2024, for a tree planting, which remains open as of this report's date. Both building permits are noted in the same seven-year timeframe, though specific details about their nature or relevance to the building's condition or amenities are not provided in the available data. The limited number of recorded service requests and permits over this period suggests minimal recent infrastructure or maintenance issues, though the record's incompleteness should be acknowledged.

Risk rating

How 6217 S Albany 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.
