Anyone from Chicago?

This 8 unit looks interesting but I see in trulia that its in high crime area.

701 W 80th ST, Chicago, IL 60620 

Is it worth checking it out?

Should I avoid this neighborhood?

The numbers looks good but the area worries me.

Please advise.

Appreciate your help.

@Alex Kholodenko, if the seller is willing to carry a first of 150k you need to pause and ask yourself why.

The link below reveals more shootings in the area near subject than would make me feel comfortable but to each his own.
