AI summary

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 1250 W Loyola Ave in Rogers Park, owned by Kathleen Sheehy, has a documented history that raises several points of interest. The 108-year-old property, built in 1915, has recorded a concerning total of 14 building violations over the past seven years, though only one building permit has been issued in that period. The property has generated 29 service requests through the 311 system, indicating some level of ongoing maintenance or quality-of-life issues. Most notably, during late 2025, there were multiple complaints (five in total) regarding uncleared sidewalks during snow events, suggesting potential concerns with winter maintenance practices and pedestrian safety. The building's most recent documented service requests include an alley light outage in April 2026 and a stray animal complaint in July 2025, both of which were resolved. While historical violations and the limited number of building permits raised some concerns, the relatively low frequency of recent service requests (two in the most recent 12 months) could suggest either improved conditions or reduced reporting activity, though this cannot be definitively determined from the available data alone.

Risk rating

How 1250 W Loyola 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

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.
