Brentwood, Austin TX 78756 0227050626 4 units · 1996

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 four-unit residential building at 5405 Joe Sayers Avenue in the Brentwood neighborhood was constructed in 1996 and is currently owned by Juan Manuel Botto A and Aida M. The property's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal building permit activity, with only one permit recorded during this period. However, there has been a notable pattern of service requests to Austin Resource Recovery, with six separate incidents recorded in 2026 alone. These requests included three brush clean-up cases, one garbage collection issue, one recycling inquiry, and one dead animal collection service, demonstrating regular interaction with municipal services for waste management and environmental maintenance. Additionally, there was one contact request to Austin Animal Services in January 2026, though this matter has been resolved. While the building's basic structure and ownership details are straightforward, the frequency of municipal service requests related to environmental maintenance is noteworthy, particularly the concentration of these issues in 2026.

Risk rating

How 5405 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

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.
