Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7308 Blessing Avenue in the St. Johns neighborhood, owned by Leo Chavez and constructed in 1981, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most significantly, there were three land use violation complaints in early 2026, with investigation dates clustered around January 9-14, each assigned a priority level of 4. Additionally, there remains an open property abatement complaint from July 2023, which was given a priority level of 5. The building's service request history over the past seven years indicates 24 separate incidents, with the majority of recent activity occurring in early 2026 when multiple service requests were initiated, including two for code officer assistance, environmental health services, and a garbage-related issue. Earlier incidents in 2025 included another environmental health services request in November and a collection truck spillage incident in July, both of which have since been resolved. While many of these issues have been closed, the concentration of recent complaints and service requests, particularly relating to land use violations and property abatement, warrants attention to the building's ongoing maintenance and compliance status.

Risk rating

How 7308 Blessing 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.
