Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The property at 5203 Star Light Terrace, currently owned by 5203 Star Light Terrace LLC, is a one-unit residential building located in the MLK-183 neighborhood. Built in 2024 as an additional living quarter, this property has undergone significant changes in a relatively short timeframe. Most notably, in November 2025, a total demolition of a previously existing single-family residence (1131 square feet, built circa 2012) was completed, representing a substantial transformation of the original structure. Following this demolition, building permits were issued in October 2024 for the installation of a new pool, which has since received final approval.

Risk rating

How 5203 Star Light Ter'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
