Bates-Hendricks or Irvington: What's your Favorite?

[Travis Washington]

Considering two properties in Bates-Hendricks (Iowa St) and Irvington (Butler Ave). Pretty much have a decision made already in my head but just wanted to see the feedback from some other viewpoints. Both properties are pretty much identical. •3/1s •Roughly 1,500 square feet •Both Turnkey •Both 2-car garages •Both in low 50Ks and estimated rental value of $775-800 Only differences: •BH home was built in 1890; Irvington property 1923 •Irvington prop has a 1,000+ square foot unfinished basement; BH prop has a typical basement of 300sf •Irvington prop is being sold as-is; BH prop open to inspection corrections. Which one would twinkle your eye was an investor of Indy?
