Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4258 N Whipple St in Irving Park, owned by Theodore I Mallasch, is a century-old property constructed in 1908. The building's recent maintenance record from the past seven years shows minimal internal issues, with only two building violations documented, though they remain unresolved as of the latest records. The property and its immediate surroundings have experienced some external maintenance challenges. In 2024, there were multiple instances of graffiti that required removal from the area, with three documented requests between July and August of that year. The following year, 2026, saw requests for street maintenance, including a pothole complaint, and a tree removal inspection, both of which were addressed. The building's total complaint record is relatively modest, with only one environmental complaint noted in the past seven years, and the owner has generated a total of 27 service requests across various categories. The majority of these requests appear to be for external or common area issues rather than problems within individual units, suggesting regular property upkeep by the owner.

Risk rating

How 4258 N Whipple St 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.
