AI summary

The 24-unit residential building at 8102 S Maryland in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood, constructed in 1930, has recently encountered significant regulatory scrutiny. As of July 2025, the building has accumulated seven unresolved building code violations, all stemming from complaint-driven inspections conducted on the same date. Additionally, there are two open cases related to unauthorized construction and building permit violations from July and September 2025. The building's record over the past seven years shows a concerning pattern of violations, with a total of 126 building violations documented during this period, which is notably high for a similar property type. The building's maintenance and compliance history also includes 21 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent being a vacant/abandoned building complaint from June 2026, though this dates could be a record-keeping anomaly. While there have been three street-related service requests (two pothole complaints) in 2025-2026, these are municipal street issues rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 8102 S Maryland Chicago'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
