Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 5503 Joe Sayers Ave in the Brentwood neighborhood, owned by Kim Kimberly, was constructed in 1956 and has experienced several notable events over the past seven years, with the majority occurring between late 2025 and early 2026. The building's recent service request history is heavily concentrated on municipal waste management issues, with a total of six distinct service calls between November 2025 and February 2026, including multiple requests for recycling, garbage, compost services, and even a collection truck spillage incident. An unusual event was recorded in November 2025 when the city was requested to remove a dead animal from the premises. While all service requests have been resolved (marked as "Closed"), this pattern of waste management-related issues suggests potential ongoing challenges with the property's refuse collection processes. Given the age of the structure and its designation as a two-family dwelling, the building's systems and infrastructure would merit regular maintenance, though external factors related to urban waste management appear to be the most significant events on record in recent years.

Risk rating

How 5503 Joe Sayers 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

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.
