[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two separate questions here. 1. Will Woodward provide as good of education as WJ? The answer to that question is not clear, but it's unlikely to be a disaster. 2. Will housing value hold up in the parts of WJ district that will be moved into Woodward? Eventually possibly, but there is likely to be at least a short-term decrease in value. So for any family, while the effect on their kids' educations is likely to be minimal, the effect on their financial health is likely to be considerable. It is only sensible that the couple is asking the question about stability of the school boundary before purchasing. [/quote] I agree. A house is the biggest investment of most American families. As the 2008 recession showed, buying an expensive house then [b]having the price crash on you[/b] can alter your life trajectory.[/quote] Because rezoning to Woodward/from Walter Johnson is going to make property values crash? What, exactly, do you mean by crash? [/quote]
