Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 6712 S Aberdeen St in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Terrence Willis, is a 126-year-old property that has experienced multiple regulatory and maintenance challenges in recent years. The most pressing concern is a set of five unresolved building code violations from September 2019, all categorized as complaint-driven inspections, which remain open as of October 2023. The property has also generated a significant number of 311 service requests over the past seven years, totaling nine filings. While most of these requests are related to routine maintenance issues such as garbage cart management and recycling services, including three separate garbage cart maintenance reports and two recycling-related requests between 2025-2026, they do suggest some ongoing concerns with waste management systems. Additionally, there was one instance of a fly dumping complaint in January 2026, which indicates potential issues with property maintenance and waste disposal practices. While the building's age and two-unit configuration are typical for its neighborhood, the combination of open building violations and repeated waste management-related service requests suggests some challenges with property maintenance and regulatory compliance.

Risk rating

How 6712 S Aberdeen 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

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.
