School distance matter?

[Lei Lo]

Hello All,

I am newbie to real estate investing but learning a lot reading the forums here and from the webinars. I am from the DFW area and I found a single family home in one of suburbs which I would like to make a rental property. But the distance from the schools is something that caught my eye. The elementary is 2 miles away but the middle and high schools are 8 miles away. Considering most families would have school going kids, I am really wondering how many would like sending their kids so far to school. I am pretty sure school buses are available. Any insights gurus?

Thanks
Lei
