Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 115 S Mason Ave in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Cie Idrizi, is an 1888 structure that has experienced significant regulatory oversight in recent years. The property has accumulated 56 building violations over the past seven years, alongside a notable number of 41 service requests through the 311 system. Recent activity includes an open request from January 2025 for a water lead test kit and a plumbing violation that was closed in October 2024. The building's permit history shows minimal construction or improvement activity, with only four permits filed in the same seven-year period. Given the age of the structure and the high number of building violations recorded, this property appears to be under substantial regulatory scrutiny, particularly regarding its plumbing systems as evidenced by the recent violation and test kit request, though it's worth noting that both the water testing initiative and plumbing violation were addressed through proper channels.

Risk rating

How 115 S Mason 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

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
45thpercentile
