Initial analysis

The property at 1324 W Argyle Street, located in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, is a two-unit building owned by Estrada Properties LLC and constructed in 1895. The building's recent service history shows two notable incidents in 2024, including a water in basement complaint and a graffiti removal request, both of which have been closed but indicate recent maintenance challenges. The property's record over the past seven years shows limited issues, with only one building violation documented and a relatively low number of 311 service requests directly related to the building (2 total), though the owner has accumulated a significant total of 144 311 service requests across their six properties. The building's permitted work appears minimal with only three permits pulled in the past seven years. While the building has experienced some recent maintenance issues, particularly in 2024, the overall historical record does not show persistent or serious systemic problems, though the age of the building should be considered.

Risk rating

How 1324 W Argyle St 2'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
99thpercentile
