Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 706 E 89th Street in the Chatham neighborhood is a 129-year-old structure owned by KAI LANI. The property's recent history since 2021 shows some concerning patterns, particularly with open building code violations as of May 2021 that remain unresolved. The building has generated a notable number of 311 service requests in the past seven years, totaling 14 in the current records. Among these, the most recent activity includes three tree emergency responses in May 2025, and several other municipal service requests including garbage cart maintenance and animal control issues in 2026, as well as a fly dumping complaint that has been closed. The building has a documented environmental complaint related to air pollution filed in July 2009, though this is now quite dated. The property has required minimal building permits in the past seven years, with only two on record, which is relatively low for a structure of its age. The current status of multiple open service requests and unresolved code violations suggests ongoing maintenance and regulatory compliance issues, though some of these concerns may relate more to public space management than the building's internal conditions.

Risk rating

How 706 E 89Th St 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
