Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6026 S Justine St in Englewood, owned by John & Lily Prekezes, is a vintage property dating back to 1888. The building's recent history reveals several concerning patterns in 2026, with multiple open service requests including a garbage cart maintenance issue and an abandoned vehicle complaint, though some issues have been resolved, such as rat complaints and a dead animal pick-up request. Of particular note are the three open complaint-driven inspection violations recorded in December 2019, which remain unresolved as of the latest data cutoff in October 2023. The property has generated a total of 24 service requests over the past seven years, indicating ongoing maintenance and quality of life issues in the surrounding area, though it's important to note that not all of these requests directly pertain to the building's internal conditions. The combination of unresolved building code violations and multiple recent service requests suggests potential challenges in building maintenance and resident experience, particularly concerning pest control and external property management issues.

Risk rating

How 6026 S Justine 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.
