Initial analysis

The two-unit property at 2623 W Homer Street in Logan Square, owned by Carlos Contreras, is a 132-year-old building constructed in 1891. Over the past seven years, there have been a total of 11 service requests logged through the 311 system, with the most recent activity occurring in late 2025. The building's service request history shows three tree-related issues in late 2024/early 2025, including a tree trim request and two inspections, though it's notable that tree trim requests are no longer being accepted as of November 2024. The property has experienced some concerns with abandoned vehicles in the vicinity, with three separate complaints filed between October and November 2024, all of which were successfully closed. The most recent service request, dating to December 2025, involved an unremoved snow complaint regarding sidewalks. While the volume of service requests is relatively low for a two-unit building over this period, it's worth noting that most recent complaints have been environmental or infrastructure-related rather than safety concerns directly affecting the building itself.

Risk rating

How 2623 W Homer St'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.
