AI summary

The four-unit residential building at 4941 W Cuyler Ave in the Portage Park neighborhood is a 1923 structure currently owned by John Chrabaszcz. The property's recent activity has been minimal, with only two documented 311 service requests in the past seven years, both of which were made on May 2, 2024, regarding garbage cart maintenance and blue recycling cart issues, and both of these requests have since been closed. The building's permit history shows only two permits issued in the same seven-year period, though the specific details and nature of these permits are not provided in the available data. Given the age of the building and the typically higher volume of service requests and permits associated with larger multi-unit dwellings, the relatively low number of reported issues and permits over this extended period may be noteworthy. However, it's important to note that these records represent only the documented incidents through the official channels and may not fully capture all maintenance or operational activities of the building.

Risk rating

How 4941 W Cuyler 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.
