Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2433 W Washburne Ave, located in Chicago's Little Italy/UIC neighborhood and built in 1888, has had relatively few documented incidents over the past seven years. Most notably, in October 2020, the property experienced an asbestos-related environmental violation that resulted in a $1,000 fine, though this issue was subsequently resolved by October 29, 2020. The most recent activity on record, from March 2026, involved multiple sewer cleaning inspection requests that were all closed successfully. Prior to these inspections, there were sanitation-related issues in June 2025, as well as two tree debris clean-up requests in May 2025. The building's documented history shows that while there have been some maintenance and environmental concerns, particularly regarding the asbestos incident, the property has generally required only routine maintenance and addressable service requests. The current owner, Patrick Nelson, holds one parcel under their name, and the property has had no further environmental enforcement actions since the 2020 incident.

Risk rating

How 2433 W Washburne 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
