North Loop, Austin TX 78751 0223091712 2 units · 1949

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 two-family dwelling at 5204 Evans Avenue in North Loop, built in 1949 and co-owned by Alan Kent Lacey and another party, has experienced notable activity recently. The property has generated 22 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, with a significant cluster of issues occurring in spring 2026. This recent wave of activity includes multiple parking violation enforcement requests (three in May 2026), two public works issues (a tree problem and a garbage concern), and one dead animal collection request, all of which have been resolved. Additionally, a code enforcement request was made to the Austin Development Services Department in March 2026. Although the building's official permit record shows only one permit issued in the past seven years, these numerous service requests suggest ongoing maintenance and regulatory concerns. The property's relatively low number of building permits and high frequency of service requests, particularly regarding parking violations and public works issues, indicates a period of increased activity that may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 5204 Evans Ave'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.
