Depends on if you plan sending your kids to a public school.

The specific practice tests I bought were from real estate express, which is the one my school referred.I personally wouldn't yet consider upgrading your account.

ONLY look where the best schools  are, in the best neighborhoods you can afford.The neighborhood and  house should have instant curb appeal, sit 'at or above' street level, yard for the kids to play in.

I graduated from UW with a degree in Engineering and an MHA from WSU.

After I finish school this spring, we plan on moving again and renting out the current property.  

@Jd Martin I don't understand how I didn't give enough information.I said 10 units because I graduate at 21 and I want to buy a duplex every year over 5 years, 5x2= 10 units.At the end I'll be 26.

Do you know the top 2 school districts around the area?

Here is how I approach it-Same type of property, bedrooms, bath, etc (if I can find similar houses)I try to keep the Comp properties in the same school districtI go back 3 months to start (the market is different now than it was 6 months or a year ago)Then I account for upgrades, market temperature, etc.That gives me a range- if I feel the property should be higher than average I need to be able to justify that because properties are sold twice- once to the buyer and once to the appraiser

Hey Guys and Girls,I started tracking real estate leads with a legal pad and soon graduated to stick notes:) My desk looked like a crime scene.

Also, it is a growing community with excellent schools, so it is a high-demand area real-estate wise.
