Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6217 S Seeley Ave in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Hazel Mc Ghee and constructed in 1957, has experienced several notable issues over recent months, particularly in the summer of 2025. The most significant recurring problem appears to be water-related, with three separate incidents related to basement water issues and sewer concerns reported in August 2025 alone. The building also required garbage cart maintenance in June 2025, and there were two informational calls made to the 311 services on June 1, 2025, though the nature of these inquiries is not specified in the records. The property's service request history over the past seven years shows a total of seven recorded incidents, with the majority clustered in mid-2025, particularly around June-August, which may indicate recent challenges with building maintenance and infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 6217 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

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.
