Summer is Out – School is In
Are you looking to purchase a home before school starts in the fall? If you have school-aged children, you are most likely not only shopping for a home but for schools as well. Did you know those home buyers say that the school their children will attend when buying a home is at the top of the list? Parents are looking not just at elementary schools. They are looking at middle and high schools as well.
When buying a home, school districts and proximity to the house are the deciding factors in the home search for parents. Experts say that 75% of parents state that education is an important part of the home search. And of those, 53% will purchase a home in a specific neighborhood to ensure their child gets into a better school. Even home buyers without school-aged children will keep the school district attached to the property in mind due to the effect that it has on property value.
Most parents also choose to make a move during school breaks. With summer winding down and school starting soon, let us help you with your search for area schools.
