Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 148 E 120th Street in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood, owned by JK Realty Group LLC, has been in operation since 1925. The property's recent history, particularly over the past year, reveals several significant concerns that warrant attention. Most notably, on March 25, 2026, three complaint-driven inspection violations were recorded, all of which remain open and unresolved as of October 2023. This cluster of ongoing violations suggests potentially persistent issues affecting the building's safety or habitability. In terms of service requests to city authorities, there have been two notable incidents: a building violation reported on March 14, 2026, which has since been closed, and a sanitation code violation from August 9, 2025, which was also closed. While the property has had only three building violations and two service requests on record over the past seven years, the most recent cluster of violations and service requests from 2025-2026 stands out as the most significant period of reported issues in the building's recent history.

Risk rating

How 148 E 120Th St 1'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
