Unlock complete reportAt 1048 N Ashland in Chicago's East Village neighborhood, this 6-unit residential building owned by MCQ LTD has maintained relatively stable records over the past 7 years. The 1895 structure has only one documented building code violation from February 2020, which remains unresolved as of the latest records. The property has maintained two building permits during this period, and while there have been 46 total 311 service requests filed within these seven years, the majority of these were addressed promptly. Notably, between March and May 2026, there was a spate of six closed graffiti removal requests, suggesting a recent area-wide maintenance challenge. The building's historical records also show one environmental complaint regarding hazardous materials from July 2003, though it's unclear if this was investigated or resolved. The building's ownership records indicate two total parcels under MCQ LTD's management, with slightly more service requests (56) being attributed to the owner than the building itself.

How 1048 N Ashland Chicago'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

Out of 583 buildings in this neighborhood, 571 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
