[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Use Greatschools. Everyone does.[/quote] This is not true. Especially since the wonkiness of great schools started working against the schools that anyone with any knowledge of the communities--including real estate agents-- knew were far better schools than higher rated schools. One month a school is a 8, they change their formula and it's now a 4. But still anyone who knows the area, knows it's the good school in the region. Once that happened, I think everyone finally pushed away from trusting GreatSchools. We bought a house in 2009 and while there were some murmurs against GS then it was still sort of accepted practice for folks if they didn't have more inside knowledge and people would say 'don't blindly trust it, but it's useful.' When we were looking in 2018--everyone told us to just ignore it and that it was worse than useless--it steered you wrong. [/quote]
