surreyhills nsw

Good Morning All,
I was just wondering whether anyone out there could give me some advice or insight into the
surreyhills area of nsw as I’m not familiar with
northern nsw.
I have spotted a property that is up for sale that needs a bit of an upgrade and has 1,2 0r all 8, 2 storey units for sale. I would like to know if this area is good,reasonable or one to stay away from?
Thanks in anticipation.
