1217 Southport Dr
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.
This building has 0 code violations (7y), at or below the South Lamar average of 0.3.
The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts code violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.

Unlock complete reportThe fourplex at 1217 Southport Drive in the South Lamar neighborhood, owned by Tong Hy An, has been in operation since 1981 and currently contains four residential units. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal service requests, with only one complaint registered prior to 2025. The most recent records from 2025-2026 indicate increased activity with six service requests within an eight-month period, though most of these appear to be routine municipal matters rather than urgent safety concerns. These include three garbage-related incidents (two with Austin Resource Recovery), two issues related to parking and vehicle abatement with Austin Police and Transportation and Public Works, an animal care concern with Austin Animal Services, and one general inquiry handled by the 311 Command Center. All reported issues have been closed, suggesting they were addressed by the respective departments, though the increased frequency of service requests in the latter part of the records period may be worth noting for pattern recognition purposes.

How 1217 Southport 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.
Out of 447 buildings in this neighborhood, 371 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
