Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7748 S Marquette Ave 2 in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, owned by Chicago Title & Trust, has been standing since 1911. Over the past seven years, the property has experienced two building code violations, both of which were resolved through complaint-driven inspections in May 2022. The building has generated a total of 11 service requests to the city's 311 system during this period. More notably, records show a clustering of recent activity in March-April 2026, with six consecutive service requests related to tree debris clean-up and waste cart maintenance, suggesting a period of significant environmental or maintenance challenges around the property. While the building itself has had minimal violations, it's worth noting that the owning entity, Chicago Title & Trust, has a much larger portfolio, with 25 violations, 81 service requests, and 7 building permits across 16 parcels in total, indicating that these numbers relate to multiple properties rather than just the Marquette Avenue building.

Risk rating

How 7748 S Marquette Ave 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
