Hancock, Austin TX 78751 0218060809 3 units · 1913

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 property at 511 E 39th Street is a three-unit triplex located in the Hancock neighborhood, constructed in 1913 and currently owned by Daryle D Mcginnis. The building's recent service request history, dating from 2026, shows a moderate level of interaction with city services, though most issues appear to be routine maintenance rather than building-specific problems. Notable recent requests include an open speed management request to the Austin Transportation and Public Works department, and a closed coyote complaint to Austin Animal Services. Infrastructure-related services have been required, including a street light issue addressed by Austin Energy, a brush maintenance request to Austin Resource Recovery, and a dead animal collection service. The only request directly related to building code enforcement was a request for a code officer from Austin Development Services, though this was subsequently closed. The patterns of service requests suggest regular urban living conditions in the neighborhood, with no immediate indications of serious infrastructure or safety concerns specific to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 511 E 39 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.

Neighborhood percentile
29thpercentile

Out of 316 buildings in this neighborhood, 224 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
