KRON 4 Report on School Values and Real Estate Home Values

Recently, reporter Kate Thompson of KRON 4 contacted me to get our on-the-ground experience with how home values and school qualities in Silicon Valley relate to one another.  We’ve put together a number of articles on real-life stories as well as an entire section for schools, dedicated to statistics and tips for understanding what those school rankings really mean.

We sent agent and Silicon Valley Real Estate Blog writer Alex Wang to talk about the details of a recent transaction he was a part of and he recounts how the demand for good schools pushed that sale to go faster and for a higher sales price.  And you can see what he had to say starting at 01:30 of the KRON 4 report below:

    This is great press, good schools always increase real estate values its a very constant thing. Most people with no kids don’t realize how much easier it is to sell a home in a great school district vs one that’s in a poor one.
