Humboldt Park, Chicago IL 60651 16021260370000 3 units · 1933

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 three-unit residential building at 3908 W Division St in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, owned by Juan M Fragoso, is a 1933 construction that has experienced a notable cluster of service requests in recent years. The most recent activity, all occurring in December 2025, involved multiple violations including building code issues, sanitation code violations, and a complaint about uncleared snow on the sidewalk, which could indicate concerns about property maintenance and resident safety during winter months. Earlier in 2025, there were additional service requests including a sewer cleaning inspection, graffiti removal, and a leak investigation in April 2024. The building's record shows limited intervention from city services, with only one building permit filed in the past seven years, suggesting minimal property modifications or improvements during this period. The concentration of service requests in 2025, particularly regarding sanitation and safety matters, may warrant attention though all issues have been officially closed out according to city records.

Risk rating

How 3908 W Division 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.
