Initial analysis

The five-unit residential building at 6850 W Grand Ave in the Montclare neighborhood, owned by Mark P Manfredi, is a 1929 structure with several notable records spanning recent years. The property has three unresolved building code violations from October 2019, all resulting from complaint-driven inspections, which represent the only building violations on record in the past seven years. The building has generated six 311 service requests since 2019, with the most recent activity recorded in 2026. These service requests have primarily been addressed promptly, with the 2026 requests including a finance parking code enforcement review, stray animal complaint, dead animal pickup request, pothole complaint, tree removal inspection, and general information call - all of which were marked as closed. While the number of 311 requests indicates various municipal service needs in the vicinity, it's important to note that none of these requests directly pertain to building conditions or resident safety, and the building's primary concern remains the three open violations from 2019.

Risk rating

How 6850 W Grand 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.
