Unlock complete reportThe two-unit residential building at 4131 N Monticello Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood, owned by Stacy Muse, has experienced several concerning events in recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, in late 2024, there was a cluster of four complaints filed within a single day (November 14) regarding vacant or abandoned building conditions, along with an additional building violation on the same date. These incidents suggest significant concerns about building maintenance and occupancy status. Following these events, there was one further vacant building complaint filed in November 2024 that was also closed. The property has had a relatively low frequency of 311 service requests over the past seven years, totaling 17, but the most recent issues, including a sanitation code violation in May 2025 and a garbage cart maintenance request in September 2025, indicate ongoing management and maintenance challenges. The building, constructed in 1907, is now facing critical concerns regarding its occupancy status and maintenance standards, particularly in light of the recent cluster of vacant building complaints and associated violations.

How 4131 N Monticello 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.
Out of 3714 buildings in this neighborhood, 2637 are predicted to be safer.
