Initial analysis

The 16-unit residential building at 3701 E 106th Street in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, owned by Bob Jovanovic, has a documented history of maintenance and safety issues over the past several years. Most notably, there are two unresolved building code violations recorded in November 2025, both stemming from complaint-driven inspections, suggesting ongoing concerns that have not been addressed. The property has experienced recurring water-related problems, with two separate complaints about basement flooding in July and August 2025, though these were subsequently closed. In addition to these issues, there has been recent attention to water quality, with an open request for a water lead test kit dated February 2026. The building's service history also includes a business complaint (closed) and a graffiti removal request (closed) in December 2025, as well as a tree removal inspection request (closed) in August 2025, indicating various exterior maintenance needs. While the property has a relatively small number of documented interactions with city services over the past seven years, the recent concentration of issues and open violations in late 2025 and early 2026 warrants attention to the building's current condition and management response.

Risk rating

How 3701 E 106Th 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.
