Location or Property?

For the past few days I've been weighting out the pros and cons of two properties. Property (A) is a triplex that could use some TLC on the interior and exterior and in a D class neighborhood of the city. Within the last two years several multifamily apartment buildings have be developed in this neighborhood. Therefor I can see potential for this properties' value to increase. 

Property (B) is duplex that needs a few repairs on the exterior and in a B class neighborhood of the city. Just by taking a quick drive around the neighborhood, it is obvious that home owners take care of their properties. Not to mention, this property is five minute walking distance from the nearest Medical center.

Given the circumstances, what's more valuable the property's location or the property's potential value?
