Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 1449 N Laramie Ave in the Austin neighborhood was constructed in 1923 and is currently owned by Patricia Tamayo. The property's recent service request history over the past seven years shows minimal activity, with a total of three documented 311 calls. Two of these incidents were related to fly dumping complaints, occurring in September 2025 and May 2026, both of which have been resolved and marked as closed. The only other recorded service request was for a tree removal inspection in July 2025, which was also successfully closed. While the building's overall service request frequency appears relatively low for its age and size, the concentration of recent service requests in 2025-2026 suggests these issues were primarily environmental in nature rather than indicative of any building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 1449 N Laramie 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.
