Gracy Woods, Austin TX 78727 0262160731 4 units · 1981

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 fourplex located at 12518 Esplanade St in the Gracy Woods neighborhood is a 1981 building currently owned by Lois A Holck. The property has documented five service requests through the Austin 311 system over the past seven years, with all incidents occurring in 2025, suggesting a period of increased activity and attention to infrastructure concerns. During 2025, there were multiple transportation-related issues in close temporal proximity, including requests for street resurfacing, road markings maintenance, debris removal, and construction concerns in the right of way, all of which were successfully closed. Additionally, there was one street light issue addressed by Austin Energy in April 2026, and an animal services request to the Pet Resource Center in May 2025, both of which were also resolved. The concentration of these service requests in 2025-2026 suggests a period of heightened infrastructure management in the immediate vicinity, though all issues appear to have been resolved through proper channels.

Risk rating

How 12518 Esplanade St'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.
