Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 8051 S Throop St in Auburn Gresham, owned by George Asiedu, has accumulated a concerning pattern of building code violations and service requests over recent years. Most notably, there are currently six open complaint-driven inspection violations from October 2025, representing the most significant cluster of unresolved issues on record. While other complaints have been documented, including completed requests for building violations and plumbing issues in October 2025, and a dead animal pickup request in March 2026, the building's most pressing concerns appear to cluster around October 2025. Historically, the property has experienced various issues requiring city intervention, including a rodent complaint in December 2024, though all previous service requests (totaling seven in the past seven years) have been marked as closed. Given the age of the building (constructed in 1916) and its current violation status, continued monitoring of resolution progress would be advisable, though this report does not include any specific recommendations.

Risk rating

How 8051 S Throop St 2'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
