Initial analysis

The property at 1721 Palma Plaza is a one-unit residential building located in the Old West Austin neighborhood, constructed in 2006 and owned by Stephanie D. and Eugene P. Schoch. The building has experienced some regulatory concerns in recent years, with two code complaints filed in 2025 - one regarding work performed without a permit (Priority 5) and another concerning land use violations (Priority 3), though both cases have been closed. The property's service request history from 2025-2026 shows regular activity, primarily consisting of compost collection requests (three instances in February 2026 and one in November 2025) and garbage collection issues (two instances in October and November 2025). A vehicle abatement report was also filed with the Austin Police Department in December 2025 and remains open as of October 2023. While the building's recent history shows more activity related to waste management services, the pattern of code complaints and their resolution suggests some attention to regulatory compliance, though the nature of the complaints might indicate previous concerns about proper permitting procedures.

Risk rating

How 1721 Palma Plaza's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Austin Code enforcement data — code violations, complaint history, Repeat Offender Program activity, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that Austin Code 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

Austin Code rarely finds 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. Austin Code has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
