Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1448 N Luna Ave 2 in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Gabino Castelan, has been standing since 1923 and is currently facing some notable concerns. The property has recorded two open building code violations since May 5, 2020, both stemming from complaint-driven inspections, and disturbingly, these violations remain unresolved to date. In addition to these code violations, the building's recent history shows a total of five 311 service requests over the past seven years, though the nature and resolution of these requests are not specified in the available data. The owner's property portfolio includes three parcels in total. While the building has only two documented violations in the past seven years, the fact that both are related to the same incident and remain unresolved for over three years warrants attention, particularly given the age of the structure and its potential maintenance needs.

Risk rating

How 1448 N Luna Ave 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

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.
