To me it is not that relevant if its above/under Madrid or Barcelona at this stage, but I think it reflects the market was nearly at peak (if not peaked already) before Covid.

I have narrowed down 3 areas:> Manor, Tx (Location is across HWY 290/130) > North Leander, Tx (Location around Larkspur Blvd or intersection 183&29, Specifically Orchard ridge(Lennar) and larkspur milestone communities along the border of Leander and liberty ) > Liberty Hill, Tx (In proximity of Bill burden Elementary or Liberty hill elementary school)I would like to get honest feedback and comparison about the 3 Areas in terms of the following:1.

I've bought a bunch and its been a primary way I got rentals until the market got really strong.. .You can buy foreclosures at different stages of the process, if its truly REO that means the whole foreclosure has ended and the bank holds title now.
