It’s that time.  The 2012 API scores and ranks have been released for schools here in California.  These little numbers are probably the singularly most important set of numbers for homeowners in Silicon Valley and other regions.  Whether it is warranted or not, many parents live and die by these numbers.  Some will not even consider a home, unless they fall into a certain number range while others will pay top dollars and live in a house they really do not like simply for the excellent numbers.  How significant these numbers are depends on the person.

 

As Real Estate professionals, these numbers are important to us because they are important to our clients and impact their home purchasing decisions.  So are you curious?  Where does your school rank in Silicon Valley?
