Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 817 N Massasoit Ave in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Noah Enterprises LLC, has experienced a concerning cluster of issues in recent months. As of October 2025, there are five unresolved building code violations resulting from complaint-driven inspections, with all being recorded on the same date. In 2026 alone, there have been multiple sanitation-related concerns, including two open sanitation code violations and a rodent complaint (though this was subsequently closed). The property has also faced basic maintenance challenges, evidenced by a complaint about uncleared snow from a sidewalk that was subsequently addressed. While the building has a total of 11 violations recorded under Noah Enterprises LLC across its nine parcels, this recent period shows a particularly concentrated pattern of maintenance and compliance issues. The only building permit recorded in the past seven years suggests limited formal improvements or modifications to the property.

Risk rating

How 817 N Massasoit Ave 3'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.
