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 2518 Howellwood Way in the South Brodie neighborhood, managed by A & K Holdings LLC, has been in operation since 1985 and is currently configured as a duplex. The building's recent history over the past seven years has been relatively quiet, with only four documented 311 service requests since 2020, all of which have been resolved. Notably, there has been a recurring pattern of animal-related incidents, comprising three separate animal control assistance requests in November 2020, an animal bite incident in November 2021, and two additional animal-related service requests in November 2022 including one specifically for the Pet Resource Center. The most recent service request recorded was in August 2024 for a garbage-related issue handled by Austin Resource Recovery. The concentration of animal-related incidents, particularly the documented bite incident in 2021, suggests some ongoing challenges with animal management in the vicinity, though the frequency of such events has decreased in recent years.

Risk rating

How 2518 Howellwood Way'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.
