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 three-unit building at 6844 South Champlain Avenue in Woodlawn, owned by Flora Ann Shaheed, is a 1917 structure that has generated limited 311 service requests over the past seven years. The most recent activity, occurring in May 2026, involves open requests for both blue recycling cart and garbage cart maintenance services. Earlier in April 2026, a leak inspection was requested and remains open, which could indicate an ongoing maintenance concern. These recent service requests suggest emerging issues with waste management infrastructure and potential plumbing concerns, though it's worth noting that prior to this cluster of 2026 requests, the building had only received two documented service calls: one in April 2026 regarding a recycling cart and one in August 2025 for garbage cart maintenance, both of which were subsequently closed. The building's service request history shows limited activity overall, with no documented emergency responses or safety violations on record, though the concentration of recent service requests indicates that waste management and maintenance systems require attention.

Risk rating

How 6844 S Champlain 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.

Neighborhood percentile
