7632 S Union Ave

Auburn Gresham, Chicago IL 60620 20283080260000 4 units · 1903

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. 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 four-unit residential building at 7632 S Union Ave in Auburn Gresham, owned by L & M McCullum, has been standing since 1903 and has experienced several notable issues in recent years according to the Chicago Master Building Record data. Most concerning is the recent pattern of water-related problems, with three water-related complaints or requests filed between 2025 and 2026, including two "No Water" complaints in June and April 2025, and most recently, an open request for a water lead test kit in January 2026. The building has also faced significant structural and occupancy concerns, as evidenced by three separate vacant/abandoned building complaints filed between May and June 2024, along with one building violation complaint in June 2024. Though some of these issues have been closed in the system, the frequency and nature of the complaints suggest ongoing management challenges within the property, particularly regarding water infrastructure and general maintenance conditions. The documented problems span various departments including Streets and Sanitation and City Services, indicating multiple areas of concern that have required municipal intervention.

Risk rating

How 7632 S Union 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.
