Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 10701 S Green Bay Ave in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, owned by William J Wallig, is a 127-year-old structure that has experienced significant regulatory activity over the past seven years. The property has recorded 56 building violations, with the most recent cluster occurring in January 2025, when seven complaint-driven inspection violations were documented and subsequently resolved. The building's permit activity has been relatively minimal, with only seven permits issued in the same period. Recent infrastructure concerns are evident from two street lighting issues in September 2025, one being an alley light and the other a street light, both of which were addressed through the Chicago Department of Transportation. The building has also generated two building violation complaints through the 311 system in January 2025, both of which reached a closed status after investigation. While the property has had multiple violations documented, it is noteworthy that the most recent violations were resolved promptly, suggesting responsiveness to regulatory requirements, though the volume of violations indicates a historically challenging compliance record.

Risk rating

How 10701 S Green Bay 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.
