Realtor VS Apartment Guide

I lived in Albuquerque 30+ years ago and it was really nice. Clean, quiet, great public transit, nice people, safe. I've heard it's not so great now. For about 15 years I've been checking realtor.com for a place in Santa Fe if I ever when the lottery. I like the Eldorado community. Source: 5 months ago

Any of the major sites: Zillow, Truilia, Apartmentslist, will have all the corporate owned places and a good majority of the smaller but professionally managed condos, etc. FB market place and Craigslist I've personally found to be where the majority of basement/ADU's are found.
