Buying a home? Want to make sure you'll be assigned to a great school in Cary NC? Wake County does reassign students occassionally, so there is no guarantee your child will go to the same school. That said, your address will certainly make a difference in the schools you'll be assigned to - or give you great options with some of Cary's outstanding private schools.
Find a Home First
Some homebuyers search for homes that meet their requirements for size, location, price point, amenities, then find out the school assignment and research the school.
Make a List of Schools
Other parents may make a list of their most desired schools, then ask for the listings of homes currently assigned to those schools, and try to find listings that match their needs in the home.
Either method can work well, it's just a matter of preference!
