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 18-unit residential building at 622 W Roscoe in Chicago's Boystown neighborhood, owned by Sawbill Properties LLC, is a 1928 construction that has had a notable maintenance history over the past several years. The property has recorded 404 service requests through the city's 311 system, with 26 building violations, though only one environmental complaint has been documented during this period. Most recently, in 2026, there has been an open request for tree planting, while earlier that year and in October 2024, there were two separate rodent baiting complaints, suggesting an ongoing concern with pest control in the vicinity. Other service requests have included infrastructure issues such as an alley pothole complaint and an abandoned vehicle complaint, both of which were resolved. The building has also secured 21 building permits over the past seven years, indicating some level of ongoing maintenance or improvements to the property. While the total number of service requests and violations may appear concerning, it's important to note that these figures cover a substantial seven-year period and represent various property management aspects rather than indicating any immediate safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 622 W Roscoe 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.
