Does a good school boost property value?

I'm considering 2 areas. One has better schools and I'm wondering if I will have better resale value in the area with better schools.

Yes, schools are important to many. Its a good thing to consider when purchasing and for resale value.
Yes, proximity to good schools can often have a positive impact on property values as well as make it more desirable to families with school age kids. Many homebuyers, especially with families, consider the quality of nearby schools when making purchasing decisions. A highly-rated school district can make a neighborhood more desirable, leading to increased demand for homes in that area. This increased demand can drive up property prices and reduce time on market.

Yes, in my opinion, the school district definitely makes a difference as far as property values.
