Initial analysis

The property at 814 N State St is a four-unit residential building located in the Rush & Division neighborhood, constructed in 1891 and currently owned by KARRIS FAMILY LLC. The building's record over the past seven years shows minimal violations and service requests, though several concerning patterns have emerged. Most significantly, there is an unresolved building code violation from December 2022, resulting from a complaint-driven inspection. The property has experienced recurring issues with graffiti, with five documented removal requests between 2024 and 2026, all of which have been successfully closed except for the most recent, which remains open as of May 2026. Additionally, there is currently an open sidewalk inspection request filed in May 2026. Throughout this period, the building has maintained a relatively low number of total violations and permits—recorded as one each—suggesting limited major construction work or violations affecting habitability. While the frequency of graffiti incidents and the open sidewalk inspection request warrant attention, the overall violation and service request count remains low compared to many other properties in similar contexts.

Risk rating

How 814 N State 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

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.
