Initial analysis

The three-story, 1932 South Shore building at 7001 S Crandon, currently owned by New Vistas Preservation LP, has a concerning record of unresolved issues as of mid-2023. Most significantly, there are multiple open violations related to a periodic routine inspection conducted in June 2023, which suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges. The building's recent history also shows a pattern of plumbing-related problems, with five plumbing violation service requests filed between November and December 2025, all of which have been closed. While the building has accumulated a substantial number of records over the past seven years—23 building violations, 19 311 service requests, 11 building permits—it's important to note that these figures represent only a portion of the building's comprehensive history, which would also include previous violations and service requests. The total counts suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance issues, with a particularly notable cluster of violations and service requests emerging around 2025, though more recent data from 2026 indicates at least one building violation that was resolved.

Risk rating

How 7001 S Crandon'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
11thpercentile

Out of 2804 buildings in this neighborhood, 2496 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
