Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 3112 N Washtenaw Ave in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood, owned by Nancy Saunders, is a 128-year-old property constructed in 1895. Over the past seven years, there have been 35 recorded service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent activity all occurring in 2026. The latest cluster of reports primarily focuses on weather-related issues, including two snow-related dibs removal requests in late January 2026, along with a pothole complaint and two information-only calls in March 2026. A December 2025 report concerning an abandoned vehicle was also filed. While the frequency of 311 calls might suggest ongoing community engagement, the majority of recent issues appear to be typical urban maintenance matters rather than building-specific concerns. The records show consistent reporting patterns, particularly during winter months, though no safety or resident experience issues specific to the building itself have been documented in the available data.

Risk rating

How 3112 N Washtenaw 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.
