Hancock, Austin TX 78751 0218061008 5 units · 1972

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 5-unit apartment building at 516 E 40th Street in the Hancock neighborhood is a 1972 structure currently owned by Uwealth Capital Investments LLC. The property's service request history over the past seven years shows minimal activity, with only three documented 311 calls since 2022. The most recent service request, made in April 2024, was related to the Pet Resource Center and involved Animal Services, though the specific nature of the request was not detailed in the records. Prior to that, there was a December 2023 request for alley and unpaved street maintenance through the Public Works department. A notable incident occurred in December 2022 when a short-term rental complaint was filed with the Austin Code Department, though this issue appears to have been resolved. The building's infrastructure maintenance needs were previously addressed in February 2021 with another Public Works request for alley maintenance. The overall limited number of service requests over this period suggests relative stability, though the recurring alley maintenance issues (in 2021 and 2023) may indicate ongoing concerns with this particular infrastructure aspect.

Risk rating

How 516 E 40 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.
