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 located at 7549 S Indiana Ave in Chicago's Grand Crossing neighborhood is a 1925 structure currently owned by Marie Sims. The property's record shows a total of 12 service requests logged through the city's 311 system over the past seven years, with the most recent batch of complaints concentrated in early to mid-2026. In this recent period, there have been multiple waste management-related issues, including two garbage cart maintenance requests and a blue recycling cart matter in February 2026, followed by another garbage cart maintenance request in March 2026. The property has also experienced some external issues, with two incidents in June 2026 involving a tree emergency and an abandoned vehicle complaint. Looking back through the records, the only service request from 2025 is a sewer cleaning inspection, which was properly closed out by the city services department. While the building has maintained compliance by following through on all service requests, the clustering of waste management issues in early 2026 suggests there may have been some challenges with refuse management during that period.

Risk rating

How 7549 S Indiana Ave 1'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.
