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 property at 102 W 38 St in Austin's Hyde Park neighborhood is a 5-unit apartment building constructed in 1966, currently owned by Cary Properties LLC. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows a relatively small number of service requests, totaling seven incidents, all of which relate to transportation and parking issues in the vicinity of the property. Most notably, there has been a concentrated pattern of parking violation enforcement requests, with five such incidents recorded between December 2025 and May 2026, suggesting ongoing concerns with parking compliance in the area. The only other recorded request was for shared micromobility services in January 2026, which appears to be an unrelated transportation matter. While these service requests indicate some level of community concern regarding parking enforcement, it's worth noting that there have been no documented internal building complaints or maintenance issues on record, and all service requests have been appropriately closed out by the Austin Transportation and Public Works department.

Risk rating

How 102 W 38 St'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.
