Logan Square, Chicago IL 60647 13362060140000 2 units · 1910

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 2721 W Medill Ave in Logan Square, owned by Jose Galvez, has a century-old history dating back to its 1910 construction. The property's recent record over the past seven years shows minimal building-specific issues, with only two 311 service requests directly related to the property itself. Both of these recent complaints from summer 2024 were municipal infrastructure matters - a street pothole complaint and a sanitation code violation - reflecting municipal rather than building-specific concerns. While the property's two 311 service requests in seven years indicates relatively few issues from a building management perspective, it's worth noting that the owner, Jose Galvez, has been associated with a total of 62 service requests across four parcels. The majority of these requests appear to be related to urban infrastructure (streets and sanitation) rather than building-specific problems, though the large number of requests warrants attention for proper context. The most recent service requests suggest typical urban challenges in the Logan Square neighborhood, though they are not uncommon for the area.

Risk rating

How 2721 W Medill 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.
