Unlock complete reportThe four-unit residential building at 3012 W Belmont Ave in Avondale, owned by Wilhelm and Karen Salmen, is an 1888 structure with a relatively modest record of service requests and permits over the past seven years. The property has experienced multiple incidents requiring municipal intervention, with a total of seven 311 service requests logged between 2024 and 2025. The most notable pattern in these requests is related to graffiti removal, with four documented cases (two in March 2025, one in December 2025, and one in August 2024). Other service requests include a dead animal pick-up in August 2025 and a finance parking code enforcement review in November 2025. The building's documented history shows limited construction activity, with only one building permit issued in the past seven years. While the property has required attention to address various maintenance and safety issues, particularly regarding graffiti, it's worth noting that all service requests have been marked as closed, indicating that the reported issues were addressed, though the frequency of graffiti incidents suggests this may be an ongoing concern for the area.

How 3012 W Belmont 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
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 3669 buildings in this neighborhood, 3155 are predicted to be safer.
