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 2933 W Lexington St 2 in Garfield Park, owned by Alfonso Vaca, has been standing since 1906 and has experienced a relatively limited number of service requests and permits over the past seven years. The property's 311 service requests from 2024 through 2026 reveal a mix of issues, with two reports of abandoned vehicles (one currently open and one previously closed), a missed garbage pick-up complaint, and a tree removal inspection request, all of which were resolved. The building has also experienced concerns related to potential water issues, with a leak check request submitted and subsequently closed in August 2024. While the number of service requests is not excessively high for a century-old building, it's worth noting that most recent complaints focus on external issues rather than internal building concerns. The property has had minimal building permit activity during this period, with only two permits recorded, though the specific nature of these permits is not detailed in the available data.

Risk rating

How 2933 W Lexington St 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
34thpercentile

Out of 3998 buildings in this neighborhood, 2639 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
