Initial analysis

The 901 E 38 St property, located in Austin's Hancock neighborhood, is a 9-unit garage apartment building constructed in 1935 and currently owned by Family 2018 Trust. The building's service request history over the past seven years shows a total of 29 documented incidents, with the most recent activity occurring throughout 2026. Notably, there are two active open cases with Austin Development Services requesting code officer inspections, one filed in January 2026 and another in May 2026, which suggests potential ongoing compliance or safety concerns that warrant attention. The property has seen regular interaction with Austin Resource Recovery, with four service requests related to compost, general waste, and bulk waste services, all of which have been successfully resolved. Additionally, there was one pothole repair request submitted to Austin Transportation and Public Works in May 2026 that has been closed. The service request pattern indicates normal municipal service usage for waste management, with the exception of the two outstanding code-related inquiries which are relatively recent and represent the most significant concerns on the property's record.

Risk rating

How 901 E 38 St'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.
