AI summary

The property at 6219 S Richmond Street in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood is a 1924 building currently owned by Armando Guerra. The seven-year service request history shows a total of 13 documented instances of resident-initiated complaints or service requests. Most significantly, during 2025, there were three separate complaints recorded regarding water in the basement, all of which were closed, indicating potential moisture or drainage issues in the building's lower level. Additionally, there was one instance of water pressure concerns logged in May 2026, though this was not classified as an emergency service request. The building's recycling management has also generated service requests, with two documented requests for a blue recycling cart – one in August 2025 and another in February 2026 – suggesting possible issues with the building's recycling arrangements or container provision systems. While the total number of service requests is relatively low for a seven-year period, the clustering of water-related issues in 2025 and the most recent water pressure complaint warrant attention from a resident comfort and maintenance perspective.

Risk rating

How 6219 S Richmond St'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.
