Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2425 W Hutchinson St in Chicago's North Center neighborhood, owned by Michael R Holzner, is a 1904 structure with a relatively clean maintenance record over the past seven years. The building has experienced only one building code violation during this period, documented in November 2019 related to permit-related inspection matters, though this issue was resolved. The property has generated a total of 14 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent ones from 2026 including a tree emergency and a water on street complaint, both of which have been closed. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure and waste management, with reports of rodent baiting needed in July 2025, an alley sewer inspection request in April 2025, and issues with garbage and recycling carts in November 2024. Notably, while the number of service requests is relatively high at 14, most of these issues appear to be routine municipal matters rather than building-specific problems, and there have been no recent building code violations recorded since the 2019 incident.

Risk rating

How 2425 W Hutchinson 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

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.
