Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6727 S Maryland Ave, located in the Woodlawn neighborhood and owned by Barbara E Easterling, was constructed in 1888 and has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, there are multiple open and unresolved matters, including a building code violation related to permit inspections from July 2025, and a water lead test kit request from September 2025. The property has faced significant water-related challenges in 2025, with three separate no water complaints filed between April and May 2025, though these were eventually marked as closed. Additionally, there have been sanitation code violations in 2026, with two documented cases in May and June that had been closed. The building's historical records show relatively low activity overall, with only one documented building violation and three building permits in the past seven years, though this may not fully represent all recent property conditions given the higher number of service requests.

Risk rating

How 6727 S Maryland 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
17thpercentile
