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 7818 S Jeffery Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood is a 1923 structure currently owned by Trends Destination An. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with three documented 311 service requests over the past seven years, all of which were resolved. Most notably, there were two violations reported in August 2025 - one related to building standards and another concerning sanitation codes - both of which were subsequently closed. Prior to these, there was a vacant/abandoned building complaint filed in July 2024, also marked as closed. While all reported issues have been resolved according to the records, the recent cluster of violations in mid-2025 and the vacant building complaint from 2024 suggest there may have been challenges with property maintenance and occupancy stability during that period.

Risk rating

How 7818 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

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.
