Initial analysis

The three-story residential building at 1708 W 44th Street in Chicago's New City neighborhood, owned by Syed A. Hussain, was constructed in 1910 and has experienced several notable service incidents in recent years. The property has faced recurring pest control challenges, with three rat complaints logged between 2025 and 2026, all of which were addressed through closure of the service requests. The building has also encountered some maintenance issues affecting resident comfort, notably documented as an air conditioning failure in June 2026. More recently, there is an open service request from June 2026 regarding tree debris clean-up that remains unresolved as of the current date. Looking at the broader context, the building's record over the past seven years shows a total of 12 service requests, with the majority of these (four) relating to rodent issues, and only one building permit filed during this period. The property's documented issues suggest some ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding pest control, though it's worth noting that all previously logged complaints appear to have been addressed, with the exception of the current tree debris situation.

Risk rating

How 1708 W 44Th 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

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.
