Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 7825 S Phillips Avenue in the South Shore neighborhood was constructed in 1928 and is currently owned by Leroy Adams Jr Trustee, with ownership records showing a single parcel under management. The property has had minimal recent activity, with only two documented 311 service requests in the past seven years. Both incidents occurred in June 2025, with the first being a sewer cave-in inspection request filed on June 22, and the second a health department leak inspection request submitted on June 12. Both of these service requests have been marked as closed, though the records do not provide specific information about the outcomes or resolutions of these inspections. Given the building's age and the nature of these recent service requests, particularly the sewer-related issue, these events may warrant attention while noting that they occurred relatively recently and were addressed through appropriate channels.

Risk rating

How 7825 S Phillips 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 2795 buildings in this neighborhood, 727 are predicted to be safer.
