Unlock complete reportThe six-unit residential building at 9117 S Commercial Avenue in South Chicago, currently owned by Onogost Investment Inc, is a 1914 structure that has experienced several noteworthy incidents in recent years. Most concerning are seven unresolved periodic routine inspection violations recorded in April 2025, which, while in the routine inspection category, suggest potential ongoing regulatory compliance issues. The building's historical record shows a total of ten building violations and eight 311 service requests over the past seven years. More recent municipal service requests have primarily focused on maintenance concerns, including three separate garbage cart maintenance issues (April 2025, July 2025, and June 2024), and an alley pothole complaint (March 2025), all of which have been successfully closed. Additionally, there was one graffiti removal request (May 2024) that was also addressed. While the periodic routine inspection violations warrant attention, it's worth noting that the majority of 311 service requests have been resolved, indicating some level of responsiveness to maintenance issues as they arise.
How 9117 S Commercial Chicago'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.
Out of 2603 buildings in this neighborhood, 2551 are predicted to be safer.
