Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 423 W Marquette Rd in Englewood, owned by Universal Management, has experienced several concerning issues since its construction in 2009. Most notably, there appears to be a significant cluster of unresolved building code violations, with six open complaint-driven inspections recorded in May 2025, and another unresolved inspection from December 2023. Across all properties owned by Universal Management, there have been 25 building violations documented over the past seven years, with this specific building accounting for 9 violations during the same period. The building's maintenance history shows minimal proactive compliance efforts, evidenced by only one building permit filed in the past seven years. While there have been two 311 service requests directly related to the building itself (a building violation in April 2025 and a complaint driven inspection in December 2023), Universal Management has generated a total of 48 service requests across its properties, though most of these (46 out of 48) were unrelated to building violations, such as two unrelated requests regarding abandoned vehicles in February and April 2026. The pattern of violations and the number of unresolved inspections, particularly in 2025, suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges, while the disproportionate number of service requests not related to building violations may indicate external issues around the property location.

Risk rating

How 423 W Marquette Rd'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
