Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 222 E Ontario Street in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood, owned by J & M Trboyevic, has experienced a concerning pattern of building code violations and service requests over the past several years. Most notably, there are currently four open building code violations stemming from complaint-driven inspections conducted in December 2024, along with an additional open violation from a periodic routine inspection in June 2024 and one from November 2021. While one permit-related violation from October 2021 has been resolved, the persistent nature of these open violations warrants attention.

Risk rating

How 222 E Ontario 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.
