Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The property at 8706 Melshire Dr in North Shoal Creek is a single-unit garage apartment built in 1971, currently owned by the Espinosa Salvador & Janet Revocable Living Trust. Over the past seven years, the building's record shows minimal significant events, with only one building permit issued during this period. The service request history indicates regular municipal interactions, primarily with Austin Resource Recovery, which handled four different waste management-related services including two dead animal collections, garbage service, and composting support. The property also experienced a parking violation enforcement request in May 2025 and an alarm administration inquiry in September 2025, both of which were resolved. While the service requests indicate various municipal interactions, most relate to standard public services rather than specific building issues, and all requests have been officially closed according to city records.

Risk rating

How 8706 Melshire Dr'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.
