Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2053 N Lorel Ave in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood, owned by Gaudencia Maisonet, is a 1908 construction with limited recent activity on record. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of four 311 service requests and one building permit, suggesting relatively low maintenance and service activity for its age and size. The most recent cluster of activity occurred in early 2026, when four service requests were filed between January 14 and February 24, 2026. These requests included an abandoned vehicle complaint, a building violation, and an ice and snow removal request, along with one information-only call to 311 services, all of which were subsequently closed. While the building has generated minimal service requests overall, the concentration of recent incidents in early 2026, including a building violation, is noteworthy and suggests the need for monitoring of any potential pattern of property maintenance or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 2053 N Lorel 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.

Neighborhood percentile
