House Hack in Frankling Park Austin, TX

[Madison Sobol]

Hi, my partner and I are moving back to Texas and found (what we think to be) a great duplex investment in Franklin Park. The street is full of run down houses, lots of cars, and the shops around are run down too, that said I personally feel think the area has a lot of room to grow given how close it is to downtown. We haven't been in the market in a while and are stuck on whether to move forward. Do others in Austin feel the same way? 

Would you invest in Franklin Park?
