Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6149 W Leland Ave in the Portage Park neighborhood is a 1963 structure currently owned by Josephine Jastrzebska. The building's recent activity record from the past seven years shows a relatively low number of service requests and permits, with only one building permit issued during this period. The property has experienced multiple issues requiring municipal attention, with a notable cluster of service requests related to dead animal pick-up, particularly in 2025 and early 2026, marking three such incidents within approximately four months. Additionally, there have been three requests for waste management services, including garbage cart maintenance and blue recycling cart issues, suggesting some concerns with the property's waste management facilities. While the total number of service requests (eight) and permits (one) on record is not exceptionally high for a two-unit building, the recurring nature of the recent service requests, particularly those related to waste management and animal removal, may be worth noting for prospective tenants considering this property.

Risk rating

How 6149 W Leland Ave'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.
