Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2737 W Belmont Ave in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood, owned by Filiberto Garcia, has a mixed record of building and environmental compliance spanning several decades. Built in 1916, this property has recently faced emerging regulatory and compliance issues, with two open violations as of May 2026 related to certificate of operation requirements and motor vehicle repair shop operations. An earlier violation from October 2024 resulted in a $250 fine for a certificate of operation requirement, while a September 2016 hearing led to a $1,000 fine regarding process equipment operation instructions. The 311 service history shows minimal resident-initiated service requests, with only two reported incidents in the past seven years, one of which was a sanitation code violation filed in April 2025.

Risk rating

How 2737 W Belmont 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

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.
