Initial analysis

The two-unit, 1888 building at 5150 S Homan Ave in Gage Park, currently owned by Jose Roldan, has experienced some regulatory activity over the past seven years, though much of it appears to be related to external infrastructure rather than the building itself. The property has recorded two building code violations since 2015, both of which were resolved through complaint-driven inspections on September 29, 2025. The building's recent service requests suggest issues primarily related to street-level concerns rather than the structure itself, including three tree trim requests (though these are no longer being accepted), two abandoned vehicle complaints, and one parking code enforcement review, all of which were closed between July 2025 and April 2026. Notably, there was one building-related concern in July 2025 regarding an alleged lack of building permit for construction, which was also closed, though the outcomes of any potential fines or penalties are not detailed in the available records. The available data does not indicate any pattern of recurring issues or serious safety concerns directly related to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 5150 S Homan 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
76thpercentile
