Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5622 S Wolcott Ave in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Segundo J Tepan, has been in operation since 1912 and has experienced several significant maintenance and service issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an unresolved building code violation from July 2019 related to a complaint-driven inspection, which warrants attention given its open status. The property has also faced recurring moisture-related problems, with two separate incidents of basement water issues reported in August 2025 and another water-related complaint in September 2024. The building's recent service history shows six 311 service requests over the past seven years, including multiple abandoned vehicle complaints (October 2025 and October 2024), water-related issues, a no-water complaint (September 2024), and a garbage cart maintenance request (July 2024), all of which have been resolved. While the property has managed to address most of its recent service requests, the persistent nature of the water-related issues and the long-standing unresolved building violation from 2019 stand out as the most significant concerns in its maintenance record.

Risk rating

How 5622 S Wolcott 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.
