East Village, Chicago IL 60622 17064010420000 6 units · 1899

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 six-unit building at 1106 N Wolcott Ave in Chicago's East Village, owned by DHK LP, is a 124-year-old property with a mixed record of recent activity. Over the past seven years, there have been five service requests recorded through the 311 system, with the most recent being a stop sign repair request in May 2025. The property has faced some challenges, as evidenced by 21 building violations recorded over the same seven-year period. In terms of maintenance and improvements, the building has had four building permits issued during this timeframe. The most notable recent issues occurred between January and October 2025, when there were multiple instances of graffiti requiring removal and two tree trim requests (though these requests are no longer being accepted). While the building's historical record dates back to 1899 and shows consistent ownership by DHK LP, the recent pattern of service requests and violations suggests a property that experiences periodic maintenance issues, though many of these recent service requests relate to external street infrastructure and public space matters rather than internal building conditions.

Risk rating

How 1106 N Wolcott 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
17thpercentile
