How Every Dollar Spent on Education Translates to $20 in Local Home Prices

For landlords, school districts can make or break an investment. Families will pay a premium to rent in top-ranked districts, but today’s high prices and interest rates make cash flow nearly impossible in these areas. In this episode, we dive into the latest Realtor.com data showing million-dollar-plus price tags in elite districts like Carroll ISD in Texas and Laguna Beach in California, where even $9,500 rents don’t cover costs. We’ll also explore why mid-tier schools—rated 6 or 7—often represent the real sweet spot, balancing affordability, cash flow, and tenant stability, and how revitalization, zoning, and tech-driven growth are reshaping the equation.
