Initial analysis

The four-unit building at 5014 N Clark St in Uptown, owned by GREB REAL ESTATE LLC, is a 1923 construction that has exhibited limited significant issues over the past seven years. The property has one building code violation on record from June 2023, categorized as a permit-related inspection, though this has since been resolved and marked as complied. The building's service request history shows a total of 25 311 calls, with the most notable pattern being six graffiti removal requests between 2025-2026, all of which have been closed. There is currently one open service request from June 2026 regarding debris removal from a protected bike lane. Only one building permit has been filed in the past seven years, suggesting minimal recent renovation or improvement activity. The relatively low number of building code violations and resolved nature of past issues suggests the property has been maintained adequately, though the recurring graffiti problems and limited permit activity may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 5014 N Clark 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
