Great blog. School district is one of the main factors why buyers decide on a property. A good school district is a security to rise in home values in the neighborhood.

A few years ago we had homes across the street from each other, all with the same builder and similar size, quality and detail with a huge price difference. The only difference was the School District.  Even when a buyer doesn't have kids, it's worth considering.
