Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2235 N Kimball Ave in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood, owned by Matilda Montalvo Lugo, has experienced several notable incidents over the past year that warrant attention. Most concerning are two open complaints from May 2025 regarding unauthorized construction work, which suggest potential safety and compliance issues. The building's pest management challenges are documented through multiple rodent-related complaints, with the most recent rodent baiting incident reported and closed in May 2026, following another rat complaint in April 2025. Additionally, there has been a fly dumping complaint in November 2025, indicating possible maintenance or sanitation concerns. While the building has had some service requests resolved, including an April 2025 public way inspection and a closed rodent complaint, the most significant issues appear to be ongoing construction violations and pest control challenges. The property, constructed in 1906, has had three building permits issued in the past seven years, though the specific nature and outcome of these permits are not detailed in the available records.

Risk rating

How 2235 N Kimball 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

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.
