I’ve been by this house and seen it.
It’s done well and these pictures of the interior are nice.
What I’m wondering is, how do these nicer houses stand up against the rest of the neighborhood?
Not just value but against the crime. I see houses right around this one with vandalism, what’s to keep this nicer (a bit too nice, almost intrusive) home from being terrorized by the rest of the neighborhood?

To the above….
Im guessing fresh paint and perhaps a weapon? Upend homes like this are just asking for it in areas which havent quite gentrified.
Also, perhaps its just me, but 220/square seems a bit optimistic in east austin considering one can be around that ballpark in SOCO.
