South Shore, Chicago IL 60619 20262220110000 2 units · 1908

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 1535 E 73rd Street in the South Shore neighborhood, owned by Reubyna S. Sharpe, has been standing since 1908 and has experienced several notable incidents over the past seven years. Most recently, in June 2026, a water lead test kit request was opened and remains pending. The building has faced multiple service interruptions, with two missed garbage pick-up complaints occurring within January 2026. In the latter half of 2025, the property experienced several other maintenance-related issues, including a rodent baiting complaint in October 2025, which was subsequently resolved, and a leak check request to the Department of Water Management that was closed the same month. It's worth noting that during this period, there were also two informational calls to 311 that did not require further action. The total of 19 service requests over seven years, while not excessive for a century-old building, reflects a pattern of occasional maintenance and service-related issues that have required municipal attention.

Risk rating

How 1535 E 73Rd St'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
