Initial analysis

The three-unit triplex at 601 Elmwood Place in the Hancock neighborhood, built in 2015 and owned by Mobu Properties LLC, has experienced significant recurring issues over the past seven years. Most notably, there has been a concerning pattern of complaints and violations, with ten code complaints filed between 2025 and 2026, including multiple instances of property abatement issues and structure condition violations, all classified with a priority rating of 5. These repeated complaints suggest persistent problems requiring attention. Additionally, the building has generated substantial municipal service requests, totaling 43 in the same period, with recent requests including multiple sanitation services (garbage and compost) and infrastructure maintenance matters (pothole repair and traffic signal maintenance) between January and May 2026. The development's relatively young age (built in 2015) combined with the frequency of code complaints and service requests raises questions about ongoing maintenance and management practices, though it's worth noting that all recorded complaints and service requests have been marked as closed.

Risk rating

How 601 Elmwood Pl'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

Austin Code rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. Austin Code has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
