AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 7639 S Luella Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood is a 1921 structure currently owned by Eddie Lee Cleaves Jr. The property has a relatively limited record of 311 service requests over the past seven years, with a total of five documented incidents. Most recently, there is an open water quality concern reported in May 2026, which could be of particular note to current and prospective tenants given its potential impact on resident health and safety. Prior to this, there were three service requests related to recycling - two in December 2025 and one in November 2025 - though these are routine municipal services related to waste management. The November 2025 request for tree trimming (no longer being accepted) was successfully closed, as was a February 2025 request for garbage cart maintenance. While the number of service requests is relatively low for a two-unit building of this age, the outstanding water quality concern is the most significant recent issue on record.

Risk rating

How 7639 S Luella Ave Hse'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.
