Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. 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 two-unit residential building at 7754 S Burnham Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood was constructed in 1910 and is currently owned by P Billingsley. Over the past seven years, there have been a total of 17 service requests made through the city's 311 system, with the most recent set of incidents occurring in 2026. Notable recent issues include a tree debris clean-up request (currently open), a leak investigation (closed), a water supply complaint (closed), and a clean-up request for a vacant lot (closed) - all within the first half of 2026. Earlier in 2025, the property experienced a tree debris clean-up request (closed) and a closed complaint regarding a vicious animal. The frequency and recent nature of water-related issues (no water complaint and leak check request) suggest some infrastructure challenges, while the ongoing tree debris concern indicates continued maintenance needs. The building's service request history spans various issues including environmental concerns (tree debris), safety matters (vicious animal complaint), and basic utilities (water complaint), though all previous service requests prior to 2025 are not documented in the provided data.

Risk rating

How 7754 S Burnham Ave'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
