Initial analysis

The 13-unit building at 9040 South Bishop Street in Chicago's Washington Heights neighborhood, owned by PP P11 3 LLC, dates back to 1928 and has experienced several significant events over the past seven years. Most notably, there are currently four unresolved complaint-driven building violations recorded from July 2022, which represent the building's only known code violations in this period. The property has generated eight 311 service requests between 2024 and 2025, with the most recent being a tree trimming request from December 2025. Previous service requests include a stray animal complaint, several building violations (including plumbing issues), and a sanitation code violation in June 2024. While there have been multiple service requests over the years, it is worth noting that the bulk of these issues have been resolved, as indicated by their closed status, with the exception of the open building violations from July 2022. The building's documented history shows a mix of maintenance and compliance issues, with a particular concentration of problems in mid-2024 when multiple violations were reported and subsequently addressed.

Risk rating

How 9040 S Bishop 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

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
2ndpercentile
