Uptown, Chicago IL 60640 14083050280000 10 units · 1929

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 10-unit building at 1352 W Carmen in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, owned by Arthur N Tarvardian, is a 1929 construction that has maintained a relatively low profile in terms of service requests over the past seven years. The property is three parcels in total, and while the owner has submitted 15 service requests during this period, only two have been recorded specifically for the building itself. The most recent activities on record include a water lead test kit request in August 2025 and a tree emergency in April 2024, both of which have been resolved. The building's documented service history shows attention to safety concerns such as water quality testing, though it's worth noting that only two building-specific service requests have occurred over this extensive period.

Risk rating

How 1352 W Carmen Chicago'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.
