Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 10243 S Avenue L in Chicago's East Side neighborhood has been under the ownership of Andrea Weber since its construction in 1888. The property has experienced minimal documented issues in recent years, with only one building code violation recorded in October 2019 related to a complaint-driven inspection that remains unresolved as of October 2023. The building's recent service request history shows activity primarily related to urban greenery, with multiple tree-related requests in 2024, including two open tree planting requests and two completed tree debris clean-up requests in July 2024. Other service requests include a closed dead animal pick-up request in September 2024 and a closed vacant/abandoned building complaint in September 2024, though it's worth noting that the abandoned building complaint may have been misfiled given the property's current occupancy status. The building's permit history shows only one permit issued in the past seven years, indicating limited structural modifications or improvements during this period.

Risk rating

How 10243 S Avenue L'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

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