Initial analysis

The property at 1213 Newning Ave in South River City is a single-unit building constructed in 2013, featuring an additional living quarter and currently owned by Louis Michael Jacobs Jr. Over the past seven years, the building has experienced several notable events, with particular attention to two code complaints filed in June 2024 regarding land use violations and property abatement issues, both of which have been resolved. Most recently, in December 2023, the property underwent interior improvements including updates to cabinets, flooring, and bathrooms throughout, though these changes were non-structural in nature and have been marked as completed. The building's maintenance history shows a total of five documented service requests through the 311 system between 2025 and 2026, covering a range of issues from construction concerns in the right-of-way to drainage matters, park maintenance, and recycling services, all of which have been resolved. While the property has maintained regular permit activity with five permits issued in the past seven years, the only reported valuation on record is $1.0, which typically indicates a nominal or administrative value rather than the actual cost of improvements made to the property.

Risk rating

How 1213 Newning 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.
