Initial analysis

The five-unit residential building at 3615 N Wilton Ave in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, owned by James A Deboer, has a documented history dating back to its construction in 1893. The property, which has had the same owner for single parcel management, currently shows some concerning patterns in its recent maintenance and compliance history. Most notably, there are two unresolved building code violations from late 2023 (October 26 and November 8) resulting from complaint-driven inspections, which raise potential concerns about building safety or maintenance practices. The building's service request history over the past seven years shows limited activity, with only two documented 311 service requests - one from 2024 regarding tree debris cleanup (which has since been resolved) and another from 2026 related to garbage cart maintenance (currently open). While the total counts of violations, service requests, and building permits in the past seven years are relatively low (two violations, two service requests, and three permits), the recent pattern of open violations and service requests suggests some current challenges in property maintenance and regulatory compliance that warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 3615 N Wilton 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
