South Manchaca, Austin TX 78745 0412120422 2 units · 1971

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 two-family dwelling at 5004 Lark Cove, owned by VCS Properties LLC, is a 1971 South Manchaca property consisting of two units. The building's record shows limited but notable activity over the past seven years, with seven documented 311 service requests. Most recently, there is an open request from June 2026 for a Code Officer inspection through the Austin Development Services Department. Prior to this, the property experienced multiple service requests in April 2026, including two separate Code Officer requests (both of which have been closed) and two garbage-related issues handled by Austin Resource Recovery, one of which has also been closed. In late May 2026, there was a Tree and Environmental complaint that was closed within the same month. The clustering of service requests in April 2026, particularly the Code Officer inspections, suggests a period of heightened scrutiny or concern during that time frame, though six of the seven requests have been resolved, with only the most recent request remaining open as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 5004 Lark Cv'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.

Neighborhood percentile
45thpercentile

Out of 214 buildings in this neighborhood, 118 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
