Initial analysis

This four-unit residential building located at 3717 N Keeler Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood was constructed in 1909 and is currently owned by Electrolight Inc. The property has experienced significant regulatory activity over the past seven years, with a total of 16 building code violations recorded, including four unresolved complaint-driven inspection violations from August 2023 and two recent unresolved violations from March 2024. These ongoing and recent violations suggest persistent compliance challenges. The building has generated 11 311 service requests during this period, with the most recent service requests in 2026 concerning sanitation code violations and building violations, though these have been marked as closed. Notably, there have been only two building permits issued in the past seven years, which raises questions about the scope of any modifications or repairs made to the property. The historical record shows a pattern of building violations and service requests between 2025 and 2026, including incidents related to construction without proper permits, though these particular requests have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 3717 N Keeler 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.
