Initial analysis

The 38-unit residential building at 4737 N Hermitage in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, currently owned by Hermitage Building I L, is a 1929 structure with a relatively clean recent record over the past seven years. The most significant current concern is an open building code violation from January 2024, which has not yet been resolved. The property has generated a total of 19 service requests through the city’s 311 system during this period, with the most recent occurring in May 2026. The majority of these requests have been routine maintenance matters, including five separate yard waste pick-up requests spread between May 2025 and May 2026. Two other service requests from August 2025 addressed community cleanliness issues - one regarding fly dumping and another concerning a vacant lot that required cleaning. Aside from the 2024 building code violation, there are no recorded safety or habitability concerns, and virtually all service requests have been promptly closed, indicating responsive property management to routine municipal service needs.

Risk rating

How 4737 N Hermitage 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

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.
