Englewood, Chicago IL 60636 20183150020000 3 units · 1957

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The property at 6209 S Seeley Ave is a three-unit residential building located in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, constructed in 1957 and currently owned by the Wayne Hummer Trust Company. Over the past seven years, there have been three documented 311 service requests associated with this property, all of which occurred in close succession during the year 2024. The most recent incident, from January 2025, involved a dead animal pick-up request that was subsequently closed. Notably, in April 2024, there were two related sanitation concerns: a sanitation code violation and a rodent-related complaint, both of which were addressed and closed by the city's Alderman department. While these service requests have been resolved, the clustering of sanitation-related issues in 2024, particularly concerning rodent activity, may be of interest when considering the building's maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 6209 S Seeley 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.
