Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4018 N Hamlin Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood, owned by Randy Schumaker, dates back to 1910 and has a relatively small record of building maintenance issues over the past seven years. The property has one open building code violation as of September 30, 2025, resulting from a complaint-driven inspection, which is notably the only building violation on record in this period. The building's service request history shows a total of seven recorded 311 calls, with the most recent being an alley pothole complaint from April 2026 that remains open. The property has experienced some recent infrastructure issues, including a street light outage in February 2025 (which has since been resolved), and three parking code enforcement reviews conducted by the Finance department in December 2024, all of which were closed. Another building violation was logged and closed in June 2025, but given the building's age and location, this relatively limited history of complaints and violations over the past seven years could suggest either good maintenance practices or potentially incomplete reporting.

Risk rating

How 4018 N Hamlin Ave'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.
