Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 6912 S Cornell Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, owned by Rosabel Ansari, has a concerning record of unresolved issues over the past seven years. Most notably, there are six open building code violations from 2022, all resulting from complaint-driven inspections in both January and October of that year, suggesting persistent problems that have not been addressed. The property has also experienced multiple pest-related challenges, with five documented rodent-related incidents between February 2024 and July 2025, indicating an ongoing infestation issue. Additionally, there was a missed garbage pick-up complaint and a tree emergency reported in 2025, though these issues were subsequently resolved. The high number of building violations and rodent-related service requests, combined with the age of the building (dating back to 1903), paints a picture of significant maintenance challenges affecting this property.

Risk rating

How 6912 S Cornell 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.
