Initial analysis

The property at 165 N Lavergne Ave in the Austin neighborhood is a two-unit residential building owned by EIK LLC, constructed in 1913. Over the past seven years, the building's records show a significant number of issues, with 91 building violations recorded, indicating ongoing compliance challenges. The building has generated a notable volume of municipal service interactions, with 183 total 311 service requests. Recent service requests have primarily focused on waste management issues, with two missed garbage pick-up complaints recorded in 2025 and 2026, suggesting some challenges with waste disposal services in the area. Additionally, there were two tree-related service requests in 2024, including a tree debris clean-up and a request for tree trimming, though the latter service is no longer being accepted. The building's permit history shows only three permits filed in the past seven years, and there have been two environmental complaints recorded, though no specific details about their nature or resolution are available. The property's age and the relatively small number of building permits issued in recent years, combined with the high number of violations and service requests, suggest that the building may be experiencing some maintenance and compliance challenges, though the limited recent service requests indicate that not all historical issues may persist.

Risk rating

How 165 N Lavergne 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.
