Initial analysis

The three-unit residential property at 4733 S Indiana Ave in Chicago's Grand Boulevard neighborhood, owned by Carline Joseph, is an 1889 vintage building with a concerning pattern of unresolved issues over recent years. The building currently has multiple open violations from September 2021, all related to complaint-driven inspections, as well as unresolved violations from September 2019. The building's record over the past seven years shows a total of ten building violations and 21 service requests through the city's 311 system, with the majority of recent activity occurring in 2025 and early 2026. These recent service requests include various concerns such as building violations, fly dumping complaints, abandoned vehicle complaints, and garbage-related issues including cart maintenance and missed pick-up complaints, all of which have been marked as closed. While all of these recent service requests have been resolved, the persistence of various building violations over multiple years and the presence of waste management issues suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and general upkeep in the surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 4733 S Indiana 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
