Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 6841 S Jeffery Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood is a 1912 structure currently owned by Janice Thomas. The property's recent administrative record over the past seven years reveals minimal activity, featuring only one building permit and two 311 service requests. Both 311 incidents occurred in the summer of 2025 and spring of 2026, with the first being a tree debris clean-up request and the second concerning a pothole in the street, both of which have been resolved. Given the nature of these service requests, which related to public infrastructure rather than building conditions, and the minimal number of service calls or permits on record, the building's documented maintenance history appears relatively uneventful. While this may suggest stable conditions, it's important to note that these records represent only the documented history of service requests and permits, and may not provide a complete picture of the building's current state or the owner's maintenance practices.

Risk rating

How 6841 S Jeffery 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.
