Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1122 W Columbia Ave in Rogers Park, owned by Vlado Bjelopetrovich and constructed in 1917, has maintained a relatively low profile over the past several years according to available service records. The property, which occupies a single parcel, has generated minimal administrative activity with only one building permit filed and six 311 service requests in the past seven years. The service requests predominantly relate to street maintenance issues, with three separate complaints about potholes in the street, two instances of garbage cart maintenance required from the Streets and Sanitation Department, and one piece of cab-related feedback, all of which appear to be unrelated to the building's internal operations or conditions. The most recent service request, recorded in June 2026, regarding a pothole complaint, remains open, while all other historical requests from 2024 and 2025 have been successfully closed. The limited number of service requests and permits on record suggests relatively stable building management, though it should be noted that this data represents only a portion of the building's historical record and may not capture all relevant building conditions or management practices.

Risk rating

How 1122 W Columbia Ave 1'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.
