Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 10501 S Avenue O in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, owned by Armando Guevara, was constructed in 1966 and has been recorded with the city for two total parcels. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of 22 service requests through the city's 311 system, with 12 of those requests occurring in the most recent calendar year (2025). These recent service requests have primarily focused on municipal services rather than building-specific issues, including multiple requests for garbage cart maintenance (both regular and recycling), snow removal assistance, parking enforcement reviews, and a pothole complaint in the street. The building's record also shows a concerning pattern of violations, with a total of 16 building violations recorded over the past seven years, though specific details about these violations are not provided in the available data. While the majority of the recent 311 service requests appear to be related to street and municipal concerns rather than building-specific issues, the significant number of building violations on record suggests potential ongoing maintenance or code compliance challenges.

Risk rating

How 10501 S Avenue O'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
