Initial analysis

The two-unit, 1935 brick building at 3241 W Wilson Ave in Albany Park, currently owned by Thai Q Tran, has experienced relatively few reported issues and has required minimal governmental intervention over the past seven years. The property's permit record shows only one building permit filed within this period, indicative of limited structural modifications or improvements. The 311 service request history, totaling five entries, reveals primarily routine municipal service needs rather than urgent maintenance or safety concerns. Most notably, there were two tree trim requests in mid-2025, suggesting maintenance of street-side vegetation. The building's waste management infrastructure saw attention in mid-2024, with three separate requests related to garbage cart maintenance and blue recycling cart services, though all these issues appear to have been resolved promptly based on their 'closed' status. The absence of any serious complaints or building violations in the records over this period may suggest stable tenancy conditions, though it should be noted that the most recent service requests were primarily related to exterior and waste management concerns rather than internal building issues.

Risk rating

How 3241 W Wilson 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.
