[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, housing prices are indeed tied to schools. False perceptions or not, people with kids buy based on schools. Years ago, you didn't see school ratings connected to homes, as the gap wasn't as prevalent and people supported their community schools. Now, however, you enter a site like Redfin, Zillow or Estately, and you'll see school ratings. If you're not familiar with the area, you'll search for homes in communities with high ratings. Look at 20882, which is Laytonsville/G-burg. There are some very large homes zoned for 2+ acres that are selling in the $600s, which is low considering square footage and lot size. Unless you have big bucks for private, school reputations are a major factor in determining home prices. [/quote] +1 House prices are always tied to school's ratings. [/quote]
