West Pullman, Chicago IL 60628 25282240110000 2 units · 1921

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 12247 S Stewart Ave in West Pullman, owned by Russell Moreland, has been in operation since 1921 and has generated seven documented service requests over the past seven years. Most recently, in June 2025, there is an open request related to the Shared Cost Sidewalk Program, which indicates ongoing attention to the property's exterior accessibility. The property has experienced some routine municipal service issues, including three missed garbage pick-up complaints in July 2024 (two in a single week) and a closed request regarding street light outages in April 2025. Environmental maintenance needs have also been noted, with a closed tree trimming request from March 2025 and a sidewalk inspection request in February 2025 (both of which appear to be connected to the ongoing sidewalk program request). While these service requests reflect typical municipal service interactions, the relatively recent focus on both sidewalk and tree maintenance in early 2025 suggests these infrastructure elements are receiving attention, though the status of the ongoing sidewalk program remains to be seen as of this report's date.

Risk rating

How 12247 S Stewart 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
