Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4346 W Cortland St in the Hermosa neighborhood, owned by Mario Lagunas, has recorded three 311 service requests over the past seven years, all of which have been successfully closed. The building, constructed in 1921, received its last three service requests in relatively close succession between late 2024 and late 2025. These requests included a sewer cleaning inspection in October 2024, which is noteworthy as such inspections can be indicative of potential plumbing system conditions, though the closure status suggests no ongoing issues. The property also required graffiti removal in February 2025 and had a garbage cart maintenance issue addressed in December 2025. While the number of service requests is relatively low for a building of this age and size, the nature of these requests - focusing on maintenance and exterior upkeep - suggests the property has not experienced significant structural or safety concerns in recent years.

Risk rating

How 4346 W Cortland St 3R'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
