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 two-unit residential building at 814 W 69th St in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Betty Burden, is a 127-year-old structure built in 1896. The property has been the subject of limited municipal attention over the past seven years, with only two building permits filed during this period. A notable pattern of maintenance issues has emerged in recent years, particularly regarding exterior lighting and building aesthetics. Between 2025 and 2026, there were four documented instances of graffiti requiring removal from the property, all of which have been resolved. Additionally, there were two street light complaints and one alley light issue related to the property during the same timeframe, all of which have also been closed. While these service requests have been appropriately addressed, the concentration of lighting and graffiti issues suggests ongoing environmental challenges in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 814 W 69Th 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.
