Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 11742 S Perry Avenue in the West Pullman neighborhood, owned by Willie E Stovall, has a documented history dating back to its 1913 construction. The property has experienced several concerning patterns over recent years, most notably in 2022 when multiple complaint-driven inspection violations were recorded, with at least six open building code violations remaining unresolved as of mid-2026. The building's maintenance history shows a significant number of complaints and service requests, with 20 building violations and 13 311 service requests logged under the owner's name in the past seven years. Recent service requests from 2026 include two recycling pick-up requests (one still open and another closed) and a resolved fly dumping complaint from March 2026. While there has been only one building permit issued in the past seven years, the most pressing concern appears to be the cluster of open building violations from 2022, representing a pattern of potentially unresolved safety or maintenance issues in the property.

Risk rating

How 11742 S Perry Ave Home'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.
