Franklin Park, Austin TX 78744 0418010603 2 units · 1972

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 5507 Tallow Tree Dr in the Franklin Park neighborhood, owned by Jose A Ceja, was constructed in 1972 and has experienced 12 documented service requests through Austin's 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent cluster of activity occurred in 2026, with four separate requests between February and June, including two code officer requests (one of which remains open), a tree issue in the right of way, and a vehicle abatement report, all of which were resolved. Prior to this, there was one bulk waste request in December 2025, and the building's history includes previous service requests from 2019 through 2022 that are not detailed in the current records but could provide additional context to the property's recent history. While the property has experienced several code-related interactions with the Austin Development Services department, the majority of these issues have been resolved, with the exception of one open case. The records show a pattern of maintaining communication with city services for various municipal needs, including waste management and public safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 5507 Tallow Tree 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.

Neighborhood percentile
74thpercentile
