I am a native who now lives in Nebraska which is right next to Texas with the highest property taxation ranking in the Nation. 

San Antonio, Texas, is the nation’s fastest growing city lately.

Location wise, it’s one block away from the zip code zoned for the good schools, so it’s not in a dangerous and bad area and It’s very close to a popular small strip mall/shopping center and grocery stores, BUT it is zoned for the same terrible schools as the more dangerous parts of town.

Hi @Thomas ClarkSpeaking from the perspective of a current National Guard member.

@Lakshmi Nikitha Duggirala - it’s National Real Estate Insurance Group.

A southern state Bank has offered me opportuity to see 5 REO props they have,  increasing growth and high income  rate with large national industy moving in.

Currently the national debt to GDP level is the highest it’s been since WW2, which likely points to increased taxes (much higher than todays levels) and manufactured inflation in the future.

That said, according the the Austin Board of Realtors and the Texas A&M Real Estate Center, the median price of a home as of July 2018 is $405K in Austin proper, with surrounding cities (suburbs) at: Round Rock $278K, Pflugerville $265K, Manor $205K, Leander $261K, Kyle $215K, Hutto, $226K, Georgetown $287K, Cedar Park $325K, Buda $266K....so there are plenty of homes within close proximity to Austin that are more affordable.

I primarily work with national lenders so that I don't have to spend time looking for new lenders when I enter a new market.
