Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1440 W Thome Ave in Edgewater, constructed in 1910 and currently under the ownership of US BK TRUSTEE 7276, has recorded seven 311 service requests in the past seven years, with the most recent cluster of incidents occurring between August and December 2025. This period saw a range of municipal service requests, including an alley pothole complaint, snow-covered sidewalk concerns, and an abandoned vehicle report, all of which were appropriately closed by city services. Two information-only calls were made in April 2026, while the summer of 2025 saw a tree removal inspection request. The building's service request history shows reasonable use of city services for various urban maintenance issues typical of a century-old property in a Chicago neighborhood, though it's worth noting that the majority of incidents pertained to external public space concerns rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 1440 W Thome Ave 1'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.
