Lake View, Chicago IL 60657 14203220340000 6 units · 1884

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The six-unit residential building at 1307 W Henderson St in Lake View, owned by Steven DeGraff, has a mixed record since its construction in 1884. The property, which has experienced three 311 service requests in the past seven years, has documented some concerning incidents. Most notably, there was a rodent baiting complaint in March 2025, and a fly dumping incident in August 2024, both of which were resolved. A tree trimming request was filed and closed in March 2026, though this type of request is no longer being accepted by the city. The building's ownership group has a significant record of violations, with 18 building violations documented over the past seven years, along with 143 service requests. The property has received minimal attention in terms of building permits, with only two issued in this timeframe, and there has been one recorded environmental complaint. While the building has maintained basic operational functionality, as evidenced by the closure of recent service requests, the history of rodent issues and multiple building violations suggests some ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges.

Risk rating

How 1307 W Henderson St'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
38thpercentile
