Tampa Schools Lead the Way to Renewed Real Estate Interest

Published by Lance Mohr | Filed under Uncategorized

As if the great weather, emerging job market and natural beauty of the area wasn’t enough, residents of Tampa now have yet another bragging right; good schools. If you are relocating or interested in purchasing a Tampa home for sale then consider this; Hillsborough lead the entire state in the number of National Merit Semi-Finalists.

The top three schools offering the prestigious International Baccalaureate Program include:

• King High School
• Hillsborough High School
• Robinson High School

But good schools don’t stop there! With the 8th largest school district in the nation, many people are surprised to learn that Tampa is home to some of the top-rated schools in Florida and throughout the country. Unlike many large metropolitan areas, Tampa takes a great deal of pride in the local education system and offers unique learning opportunities targeted to the skills and interest of students. For example, magnet schools offer meaningful learning opportunities unlike traditional systems; everything from multi-lingual options to international studies are available.

Options Galore!

Parents and others searching for Tampa real estate have their pick of great magnet school choices with emphasis ranging from the arts to science and technology or even health professions and engineering. Whatever aptitude and interest your child demonstrates there is a high likelihood that Tampa has a school that specializes in meeting the training and preparation needs you desire.

Residency Matters!

Remember, some magnet schools have residency requirements, which means that you must reside in the area in order to apply. It’s also important to apply early; most magnet schools accept new applications in the spring for the following school year.

Invest in the Best

Investing in a solid school district not only provides your child with the best possible start in life but also preserves your real estate investment. Research has demonstrated that homes in better school districts routinely sell for a 10 percent (or greater) premium above similar homes in less desirable school districts.
