Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 8816 Mesa Drive in Westover Hills, owned by Dennis Dechkevich, is a 1976 property that has undergone several improvements and experienced multiple service requests over recent years. Most notably, the building has seen significant interior improvements in 2023, including a garage conversion and interior remodeling that were successfully completed in October, along with a kitchen and bathroom remodel in June of the same year, though this permit ultimately expired. The property has maintained activity consistency with eight building permits issued over the past seven years, with a total permit valuation of $2.0 million, though this figure appears unusually high relative to typical residential improvements.

Risk rating

How 8816 Mesa 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

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.
