Will South Central Houston really go from a class F to A?

[Susan Tan]

South central Houston located east of Midtown in Houston, TX has a lot of abandoned vacant single family rentals according to Google streetview 2015 especially near Emancipation park. Fast forward 5 years later in 2020, there are new development listings such as https://www.realtor.com/reales... for houses in the $350-$450k range because the city spent $33mil on a revitalization project to clean up Emancipation Park and build new homes. For investors in Houston, do you think that the newly built homes will hold their value over time?
