5506 Grover Ave

Brentwood, Austin TX 78756 0227050411 26 units · 1966

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 26-unit Brentwood Townhomes L P apartment complex at 5506 Grover Ave, built in 1966, has maintained a relatively stable record over the past seven years, with only one building permit, one fire incident, and a notable number of 61 service requests tracked through the 311 system. Most recently, in March 2026, there were multiple reports concerning street light issues in the vicinity, with three separate requests made to Austin Energy, though one of these was marked as a duplicate. The complex has also generated some waste management-related service requests in April 2026, indicating ongoing engagement with the Austin Resource Recovery department regarding garbage services. Earlier in September 2025, there was a request for parking sign maintenance that was handled by the Transportation and Public Works department. While the total number of service requests may seem high, it's worth noting that many of these relate to external infrastructure issues rather than problems with the building itself, and most have been promptly closed following department intervention.

Risk rating

How 5506 Grover 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.

Neighborhood percentile
