Hyde Park, Austin TX 78705 0219060115 5 units · 1972

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.

Initial analysis

The 5-unit apartment building at 112 W 38th Street in Hyde Park, owned by John Capital LLC, was constructed in 1972 and has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most significantly, there appears to have been a recurring issue with garbage management in 2025, with four separate reports to Austin Resource Recovery between March and October of that year, all of which have since been closed. The building's maintenance and infrastructure appear to be generally stable, with only two other service requests on record: a street light issue reported to Austin Energy in September 2023 that was resolved, and a follow-up from the Development Services Department in March 2024 for which no specific details are provided. While the frequency of garbage-related incidents in 2025 stands out in the building's service record, it's worth noting that these represent a relatively small number of overall service requests for a multi-unit residential building over this seven-year period.

Risk rating

How 112 W 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

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.
