Chatham, Chicago IL 60619 20353170240000 15 units · 1965

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 15-unit residential building at 951 E 86th Street in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood, managed by Provident Management Company LLC, has maintained a relatively low volume of official service requests over the past seven years. The property, constructed in 1965, has only generated three 311 service requests through regular channels, in addition to three others that were made under the owner's name. The most recent documented incident occurred in April 2026, involving a stray animal complaint that was subsequently closed. Prior to that, there was a building violation reported in September 2024, and a sidewalk inspection request in May 2024, both of which were also closed. Notably, the building's record shows no patterns of recurring issues or systemic problems, though the relatively dated nature of the most recent service requests (with the latest being from 2026) suggests that more current data may not be fully reflected in this summary.

Risk rating

How 951 E 86Th 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

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
14thpercentile

Out of 1901 buildings in this neighborhood, 1635 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
