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 two-unit residential building at 3915 W Monroe Street in Chicago's Garfield Park neighborhood, owned by Edward Negron, has a documented history dating back to 1913. The property has experienced numerous issues over the past seven years, with a particularly concerning pattern emerging in 2025-2026, when four separate abandoned vehicle complaints were filed within an eight-month period. During this same timeframe, there were also complaints about a dead animal requiring pickup, a tree trimming request, and a street lighting issue. While these incidents reflect neighborhood-level service needs rather than direct building concerns, they indicate some environmental and safety challenges in the immediate area. More significantly, the building itself has accumulated 59 violations over the past seven years, though the specific nature and resolution status of these violations are not detailed in the report. The property has also generated 97 service requests through the 311 system and has undergone 10 building permits, suggesting ongoing maintenance and possibly some improvements or modifications to the structure.

Risk rating

How 3915 W Monroe St'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
40thpercentile
