Initial analysis

The 200-unit apartment complex at 2601 Penny Lane in North Shoal Creek, currently owned by Baustin Ventures Ltd, was constructed in 1970 and has experienced several significant events over recent years. The building has recorded two structure condition code complaints in 2023 and 2026, both of which were assigned a priority of 2 and marked as closed. Of particular note, there have been three fire incidents documented within the past seven years, though no additional details about these occurrences are provided in the records. The property has also generated a notable number of 311 service requests, with a total of 61 calls over the past seven years, including multiple recent requests (March-June 2026) related to waste management through Austin Resource Recovery, and several animal services calls including reports of coyotes and injured/sick animals in May 2026. While the building has some concerning elements including fire incidents and structural complaints, the recent service requests primarily relate to routine municipal services and wildlife issues rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 2601 Penny Ln'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
4thpercentile
