6808 Thorncliffe Dr

Northwest Hills, Austin TX 78731 0137020522 2 units · 1977

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. 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 two-unit residential property at 6808 Thorncliffe Drive in the Northwest Hills neighborhood was built in 1977 and is currently owned by Dan M. Sannes. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows a relatively low level of service requests, with a total of 11 recorded incidents. The most recent cluster of activity occurred in late 2025, with six service requests between April and December of that year, all related to waste management services provided by Austin Resource Recovery. This included three recycling requests, two garbage requests, and one brush request, all of which have been closed. While the building's service request history shows regular engagement with municipal services, particularly for waste management, there are no recorded incidents that would raise immediate concerns about resident safety or comfort. The property's service request frequency appears to be consistent with typical urban residential waste management needs, though the concentration of requests in late 2025 is notable.

Risk rating

How 6808 Thorncliffe Dr'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.

Neighborhood percentile
18thpercentile

Out of 149 buildings in this neighborhood, 122 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
