South Brodie, Austin TX 78748 0428231513 2 units · 1984

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 2505 Howellwood Way in South Brodie, owned by Karl G Jennings Jr, was constructed in 1984 and has been through its share of municipal interactions over the past seven years. The property, which is currently registered as containing two separate units, has generated a total of ten 311 service requests between 2018 and 2026. The most recent cluster of service requests in early 2026 demonstrates frequent interactions with the Austin Resource Recovery department, with six separate requests related to waste management, including recycling, garbage collection, and compost services. Additionally, there were two animal-related incidents reported in early 2026, one involving loose dogs (reported to Austin Animal Services) and another concerning dead animal collection (handled by Austin Resource Recovery). The pattern of service requests suggests regular waste management needs at this location, though all reported issues appear to have been promptly addressed, as indicated by their "Closed" status.

Risk rating

How 2505 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.

Neighborhood percentile
36thpercentile

Out of 242 buildings in this neighborhood, 155 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
