Initial analysis

The six-unit residential building at 555 W 111th Street in Roseland, owned by Lamont Williams, has experienced significant regulatory activity in recent years. The 1965 structure currently shows seven unresolved building code violations from July and November 2025 that were triggered by complaint-driven inspections, marking a notable concern regarding the building's recent maintenance and compliance history. Over the past seven years, the property has accumulated a total of 28 building violations and 17 311 service requests, while the owner has multiple properties showing a combined total of 75 building violations and 43 service requests across four parcels. The most recent 311 service requests include various issues such as a renters and foreclosure complaint (December 2025), a sanitation code violation (December 2025), and a building violation complaint (November 2025), all of which were subsequently closed. The building's permit activity over this period is notably minimal, with only one permit issued specifically for this address and five across all owned properties, suggesting limited documented improvements or modifications to the building's structure or systems.

Risk rating

How 555 W 111Th St 2'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
