Initial analysis

The five-unit residential building at 2711 N Kenmore Ave, located in the Sheffield & DePaul neighborhood and owned by MBWRE LLC, was constructed in 1918 and has been subject to regular municipal monitoring over the past several years. The property has maintained a relatively low volume of service requests, with a total of 11 filed directly against the building in the past seven years, compared to 42 across all owner parcels. Recent concerns have been primarily related to street-level issues, with the most recent incident occurring in March 2026 involving water on the street, following similar complaints about abandoned vehicles in February 2026. Prior to these, there were two consecutive rodent-related complaints in June 2025. The building's only documented environmental complaint was filed in May 2022 regarding construction and demolition activities, though this was resolved within one day. The historical service request data indicates that while there have been several municipal interventions in the vicinity of the building, most of these issues appear to be external to the property itself, focusing on street conditions and neighborhood maintenance rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 2711 N Kenmore Ave 1'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
45thpercentile
