Initial analysis

The six-unit residential building at 761 W 72nd Street in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Mohammed Hussein and constructed in 1904, has a concerning history of code violations and service requests over the past seven years. Most notably, there are currently six unresolved complaint-driven inspection violations as of December 2025, though it's worth mentioning that the dates provided for these violations appear to be anomalies for future dates. Throughout the past seven years, the building has accumulated a total of 102 building violations and 34 service requests, indicating persistent maintenance and compliance issues. The most recent cluster of service requests in 2025 includes five building-related issues between April and June, covering plumbing violations, building violations, and even a graffiti removal request, all of which have since been closed. Additionally, there were two sanitation-related issues and a vacant lot request in September 2025, though these as well have received closure status. The building's record suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance and code compliance, particularly in recent years, with multiple violations requiring attention from city services.

Risk rating

How 761 W 72Nd St'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.
