Initial analysis

The property at 5932 S Laflin St in Englewood is an 1888-built two-unit residential building currently owned by Arthur &E Morris. The building's recent history is concerning, with multiple unresolved issues as of 2026. Most notably, there are seven open building code violations as of March 27, 2026, resulting from complaint-driven inspections. The property has also generated two open sidewalk inspection requests in 2025 and 2026, and while there have been some resolved service requests (including one building violation in March 2026, fly dumping complaint in May 2025, and a garbage cart maintenance issue in April 2025), these are relatively minor compared to the current open violations. The building's total record over the past seven years shows 24 building violations and 6 service requests, with only one building permit issued during this period, which raises questions about the property's maintenance and compliance history.

Risk rating

How 5932 S Laflin St 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.
