AI summary

The two-unit residential property at 6119 S Kilpatrick Ave in the Clearing neighborhood, built in 1962, has presented several concerning patterns over the past seven years. The building itself has generated three service requests in the most recent period (with one being a sidewalk inspection request in 2024 and two water-related complaints in August 2025), though this is a relatively low number compared to the overall management record of the property under its current ownership. More significantly, the ownership group, identified as "TAXPAYER OF," has an extensive history with 2,228 building violations recorded over the past seven years, along with a staggering total of 8,731 service requests across multiple properties. The management record also shows some environmental concerns, with 10 enforcement actions and 33 complaints logged, though only three house share violations have been documented. While the building permits for this specific property are relatively minimal with only one permit recorded in the past seven years, the ownership group has pulled a substantial 338 permits across their total holdings. The most concerning aspect of this building's record is perhaps the extremely high number of total violations and service requests associated with the ownership group as a whole, which suggests significant management challenges across their portfolio, though specific details about these violations and requests are not available in the summary data.

Risk rating

How 6119 S Kilpatrick Ave 1'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.
