Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 1407 Caladendra Dr in Montopolis, owned by Ernesto G Merino, is a 1983 property that has experienced notable regulatory activity over the past several years. Most significantly, there has been a pattern of unpermitted work at the property, with two separate violations recorded in 2024, along with a land use violation in June 2024 and a property abatement case in November 2025, all of which have been closed. The building has also generated considerable parking-related issues, with six parking violation enforcement requests submitted to the Transportation and Public Works department between December 2024 and March 2025, all of which have been resolved. The property's recent history suggests ongoing concerns with compliance to building and land use regulations, particularly in terms of unpermitted modifications, though all noted cases have reached a closed status.

Risk rating

How 1407 Caladendra 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.

Neighborhood percentile
