Question about school rezoning info for real estate professionals (for sale, houses)

[Anony-Momma]

When will the Williamson County school rezoning be reflected in property listings online? Any idea whose job that is and how long that may take?

the safest thing to do is put the address into the zoning query on Williamson County Schools.

I doubt some agents will change their listings until the end of the school year, because technically the houses are zoned for the schools listed now.

As of today, these will not be reflected on MLS until the change actually takes effect. We are actually not allowed to indicate the new zoning beforehand as it may be speculation until ratified. Seems a little behind the times as the technology would support adding a transitional listing too, but it’s a policy right now that individual agents cannot change.

Septimus is right, there are links to the new zoning queries that can help, and there are maps that can help, but both are fairly sloppy when you are trying to use them along side your MLS searches. You might take a look at the neighborhoods affected by the changes and determine if any of those are for you or not, then subtract those (not making the cut) from your search criteria automatically with a minus sign in front of each of their subdivision names.

Example: in "Subdivision" category on Realtracs.com: -subdivisionA, -subdivisionB, etc.

Thank you for the advice as I establish a game plan- we'll be there in a month or two to look at schools and some homes for sale.
