Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2431 W Gunnison St in Lincoln Square, owned by Jan Soltys, is a 1908 structure that has experienced several notable incidents in recent years. The property has maintained a relatively low frequency of official complaints and permit requests, with only three 311 service requests recorded over the past seven years, though the owner has had a total of 28 311 requests across five parcels. Recent maintenance concerns include a reported leak in December 2024, a tree management issue in April 2025, and sidewalk condition concerns in July 2024, all of which have been resolved. The building has had minimal regulatory action against it, with only one building violation noted in the past seven years, and has required only two building permits during this period. While the property's record shows regular municipal interactions, the nature of the requests suggests routine maintenance rather than systemic issues, though the relatively low number of total requests for a multi-unit building of this age is worth noting.

Risk rating

How 2431 W Gunnison 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.
