AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 8106 S Kingston Ave 3 in South Chicago, owned by Orin Taylor, has been in operation since 1954 and has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there is currently an open leak investigation ongoing as of June 2026, which warrants attention given the building's age and potential for water-related damage. The property has documented multiple sanitation concerns, with two sanitation code violations recorded in late 2025 (November) and early 2026 (February), along with a rodent-related complaint in February 2026. These recent sanitation issues, occurring within a seven-month period from August 2025 to February 2026, suggest potential challenges with building maintenance and pest control. Additionally, a fly dumping complaint was filed in August 2025, further indicating concerns with waste management and environmental cleanliness around the property. While the building has had 14 service requests documented over the past seven years, the clustering of sanitation-related issues in 2025-2026 is particularly noteworthy and may impact resident comfort and safety.

Risk rating

How 8106 S Kingston Ave 3'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.
