Initial analysis

3417 N Seeley Ave is a three-unit residential building located in Chicago's North Center neighborhood, owned by Dan Marahl and constructed in 1890. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of seven 311 service requests, with all being resolved through the appropriate channels. The most recent documented issues involve waste management concerns, with two rodent-related complaints and a blue recycling cart request in April 2026, though the frequency of these pest-related incidents appears to be decreasing as there were three such complaints in fall 2025. The building's service request history also includes a December 2025 tree trim request (for which the service is no longer being accepted) and a fly dumping complaint from October 2024. While the property has experienced multiple service requests related to rodent issues, particularly in late 2025, it's worth noting that all reported concerns have been officially addressed and closed out through city services.

Risk rating

How 3417 N Seeley Ave'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.
