1209 Walnut Ave

Chestnut, Austin TX 78702 0210120106 2 units · 1935

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 two-family dwelling at 1209 Walnut Avenue in Austin's Chestnut neighborhood is a 1935 property owned by Julia Claire Pitre and Joaquim A Thomas, with a total of 2 units on record. The building's recent history from 2026 shows a noticeable increase in service requests, with six separate incidents reported within a two-week period in May 2026 alone. Of particular note are two outdoor commercial venue music complaints, one of which was marked as a duplicate. Other reported issues during this timeframe include a street light problem that was resolved, a tree and environmental complaint (currently open), and a completed graffiti abatement request on private property. The concentration of service requests in May 2026 suggests a period of heightened neighborhood activity or concerns, though most of these issues have been resolved. It's worth noting that while the building's records show a significant number of service requests (20) over the past seven years, this is primarily due to recent clustering of complaints in 2026 rather than a consistent pattern of issues over time.

Risk rating

How 1209 Walnut Ave'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
