Belmont Cragin, Chicago IL 60641 13281100310000 2 units · 1926

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 residential building at 3022 N Lotus Ave in Belmont Cragin, managed by KINDYBALYK MGMT LLC, has experienced several significant events in recent months, particularly during the summer and fall of 2025. The property, constructed in 1926, has generated a total of 21 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, with a notable cluster of issues arising between July and August 2025. Most concerning among these recent incidents are a vacant/abandoned building complaint and a building violation filed in August 2025, as well as a plumbing violation reported in the same month. Additional service requests during this period included complaints about street lighting and a stray animal in July 2025, followed by an ice and snow removal request in December 2025. While all these service requests have been marked as closed, the concentration of building-related complaints in August 2025, particularly regarding vacancy and violations, merits attention as the most significant pattern in the building's recent history.

Risk rating

How 3022 N Lotus 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.

Neighborhood percentile
20thpercentile
