Initial analysis

The six-unit residential building at 925 S Laflin St in Chicago's Little Italy neighborhood, constructed in 1933, is currently facing multiple regulatory challenges. The property, under the ownership of 921 25 S Laflin LLC, has accumulated a total of 16 building violations and 28 service requests through 311 over the past seven years, though only one environmental complaint was recorded. Most concerning are the six open periodic routine inspection violations recorded in May 2025, indicating unresolved compliance issues. While the building has a history of maintenance needs, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests, including three documented building violations in 2025 and previous graffiti removal requests, the property has shown some capacity for resolution, as demonstrated by the compliance of a periodic routine inspection violation from July 2022. The total of 28 owner-requested 311 service calls suggests regular engagement with city services, though the recent cluster of violations and service requests in 2025 indicates ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance.

Risk rating

How 925 S Laflin 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

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.
