3405 Helms St
Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.
This building has 0 code violations (7y), at or below the North University average of 0.6.
The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts code violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.

Unlock complete reportThe five-unit apartment building at 3405 Helms Street in the North University neighborhood is a three-story structure built in 1973 and currently owned by Helms Eagle LLC. Over the past seven years, the property has generated six 311 service requests, with a cluster of activity occurring in early 2026. Most significantly, there have been three Code Officer requests to Austin Development Services in early 2026, with one remaining open as of mid-May 2026. The property has also experienced some transportation-related issues, including a parking violation enforcement request in April 2026, a shared micromobility inquiry in January 2026, and a debris in the street complaint also in January 2026, though these latter three transportation-related issues have been resolved. While the building has experienced multiple service requests, particularly in 2026, it's worth noting that prior to this year, the property had maintained a relatively low frequency of reported issues, with only one service request recorded in 2025 and none in 2024.

How 3405 Helms 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
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.
Out of 262 buildings in this neighborhood, 220 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
