Lincoln Square, Chicago IL 60659 13122080350000 44 units · 1957

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The 44-unit residential building at 2439 W Bryn Mawr in Chicago's Lincoln Square neighborhood, owned by Sam Realty Corp since 1983, has a documented history dating back to its construction in 1957. The property has experienced several municipal service interactions over the past seven years, with a total of 21 service requests filed through the 311 system, primarily addressing street-related issues such as potholes and water concerns, along with some sanitation code violations. Notably, during the most recent period from late 2025 to early 2026, there were three sanitation code violations recorded within a single week in December 2025, along with a water complaint and additional street-related issues. The building's compliance record shows a total of nine violations in the past seven years, though specific details on these violations are not available in the provided data. The property's permit activity has been minimal in recent years, with only two building permits issued during the seven-year review period. Given the age of the building and its location, regular maintenance and prompt attention to code violations would be expected, though the recent cluster of sanitation issues in late 2025 may warrant particular attention.

Risk rating

How 2439 W Bryn Mawr Chicago'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.
