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 property at 114 W Grand Ave is a historic four-unit building located in Chicago's River North neighborhood, constructed in 1892 and currently owned by 112 Grand LLC. The building's documented issue history over the past seven years shows relatively minimal problems, with only one building code violation recorded during this period, specifically related to permit inspection matters in July 2019, which has since been resolved. The property has generated one 311 service request during this seven-year timeframe, which pertains to a street pothole complaint filed in March 2025 and was promptly closed. When considering the ownership entity's wider record, 112 Grand LLC shows slightly more documented activity, with three total building violations and five service requests across two parcels, though the majority of these issues appear to be historical in nature rather than ongoing concerns affecting current or prospective tenants.

Risk rating

How 114 W Grand 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
84thpercentile
