Initial analysis

The property at 3409 Cedar Street is a two-family dwelling located in the North University neighborhood, built in 1935 and currently owned by Catherine Collett. Over the past seven years, the building has had minimal documented issues, with only one code violation case and one code complaint, both of which were opened and closed in August 2025. The recent history of service requests shows a cluster of activity in the latter half of 2025, with five different requests, including two requests for code enforcement officers on July 31 and August 13, and a property abatement complaint opened on August 13 that also reached closure. Additionally, there were three infrastructure-related service requests in 2026, including a debris issue in the street in April, a parking machine problem in January, and a pothole repair request in October 2025. While the frequency of service requests might suggest some ongoing management attention is required, it's notable that all documented cases have reached closure, indicating responsive handling of these issues.

Risk rating

How 3409 Cedar 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.
