One of the most important things to let your Realtor know when you’re looking for a home is which school you want your children to attend.
Not familiar with the area? Your Realtor should be able to help you understand the different school options and quality.
One of the handy tools we use is the Student Transportation of Eastern Ontario website, and you can access it too! Check school transportation eligibility and boundaries:www.steo.on.ca
Even if you’re planning to drive your child to school, it’s important to do your homework ahead of time. If a school is already at maximum capacity, which many are, acceptance may not be possible.
School considerations should be part of your home search from the very beginning – not something to figure out after you’ve bought!
