Initial analysis

The 100-unit apartment complex at 5200 N Lamar Blvd in the Brentwood neighborhood, built in 1983, has experienced several notable events over recent years. Most concerning are three structure condition-related code complaints filed between 2025 and 2026, two of which were classified as Priority 2 cases, indicating moderate severity. The property also recorded one property abatement complaint in 2025 with a lower Priority 5 designation. In terms of building improvements, the complex has attempted to modernize with the installation of EV charging stations in July 2024, though this permit has subsequently expired. The property underwent a significant improvement in 2020 with the successful completion of a metal carport structure over existing surface parking, which was properly finalized. The building has generated a substantial number of service requests to the 311 system over the past seven years, totaling 73, though the nature and resolution of these requests vary widely. While the building has seen some efforts toward modernization and infrastructure improvements, the recent pattern of structure-related code complaints warrants attention.

Risk rating

How 5200 N Lamar Blvd'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

Austin Code rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. Austin Code has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
