I'm looking to make an investment near Garfield Park in Indianapolis (cross street: Schiller & S Alley 25E).Anyone can advise me if it's a decent area in Indianapolis?

Hello bp members,I was just browsing at 2am and I came across a town house in the area that I am actually looking to move to in my city.

Some strong areas I see are Indianapolis, Kansas City, Philadelphia, and my backyard - Chicago.

I have experienced the city, but she never has. 

Obviously the best and most long term option would be to have the city come in and sub meter the property.

I usually pull minor alteration permits if the job allows, so I have less experience with permits with plans, but this is what I budget:   1 month for Arch, 1 month for the city to review. 

Louis City Hall, as that's the only address I gave it.

I'm looking to buy a few rentals in Kansas City in 2019, but am frequently warned of the dangers of out of state investing.

It is located on 12th street, between Drexel and Pennsylvania Avenues.
