Why School Districts Protect Your Home’s Value — Even If You Don’t Have Kids

Most buyers think school districts only matter if you have kids. That’s wrong. School districts aren’t about parenting — they’re about demand, pricing power, and resale protection. In this video, I break down: • Why school districts increase buyer competition • How they protect value when markets slow • Why homes just a few miles apart can be worth dramatically different amounts • And why this still matters long after your kids graduate I also share my own real story — where my son started school, where we moved him after my divorce, how blending a family made school boundaries non-negotiable, and why even now — with no kids left in school — my home still holds more built-in value than similar homes two cities away. This isn’t emotional advice. It’s strategy. Real estate rewards people who think one move ahead — and school districts are one of the most overlooked ways to protect your biggest asset.
