Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5019 W Fullerton Ave in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood, owned by Victoria Olivares, has a history dating back to its 1928 construction. The property has experienced minimal documented issues over the past seven years, with only one building code violation recorded during this period - a complaint-driven inspection that remains unresolved as of February 2020. The building's 311 service request history shows three recorded incidents: two graffiti removal requests in February 2025, which were promptly addressed and closed, and an April 2024 pet wellness check request that was also resolved. It's worth noting that this recent pattern of graffiti issues contrasts with the earlier environmental complaint from 1993 concerning hazardous materials, suggesting improved overall safety conditions in recent decades. The relatively low number of violations and service requests over the past seven years, combined with the resolution of recent service requests, may indicate generally responsible property management, though the open building code violation from 2020 remains a notable exception.

Risk rating

How 5019 W Fullerton 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.
