Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7621 S Sangamon St, located in Chicago's Auburn Gresham neighborhood, was constructed in 1908 and is currently owned by 1878 INC. Over the past seven years, the property has experienced several notable issues, with three building violations recorded in the most recent period, all dating from October 2019 and currently remaining unresolved. The property has documented multiple water-related problems in early 2025, including instances of water in the basement, a potential leak, and water on the street, suggesting ongoing moisture management challenges. The building's service history also includes a complaint about a vacant or abandoned building in July 2025, though this issue has since been resolved. The owner, 1878 INC, has a more extensive record than the building itself, with 78 total service requests and 15 building violations across ten parcels, including six scofflaw violations, though specific details of these infractions are not provided in the records. The total number of service requests for the property stands at ten in the building's recent history, with the most recent being a dead animal pick-up request in April 2026. While the building has had some permits issued in recent years (two building permits directly related to the property), the persistent water-related issues and unresolved building violations from 2019 warrant particular attention in evaluating the property's management history.

Risk rating

How 7621 S Sangamon St 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.
